Please read the docs in /usr/share/doc/lilo.

  L  ...   The first stage boot loader has been loaded and started,
    but it can't load the second stage boot loader. The two-digit error
    codes indicate the type of problem. (See also section "Disk error
    codes".) This condition usually indicates a media failure or a geometry
    mismatch (e.g. bad disk parameters, see section "Disk geometry").


   0x01   "Illegal command". This shouldn't happen, but if it does, it may
    indicate an attempt to access a disk which is not supported by the
    BIOS. See also "Warning: BIOS drive 0x may not be accessible"
    in section "Warnings".

The file README.common.problems has a few good hints to.

Yes. I've read the manual.txt.gz. But I have no idea how to transfer lilo the correct disk geometry. Originally this is my situation:
1. There's one hard disk in my PC.
2. A lilo located in MBR can load the lilo on /dev/hda7.
