lilo puts the MBR where you told it ...
vi /etc/lilo.conf
boot=/dev/xxxx
that is where it isntalls it
- if you have preveious ran other tools that installs MBRs, than those
MBR is used instead
- there is an MBR for /dev/hda
- there is an MBR for /dev/hda1
- there is an MBR for /dev/hda2
....
for each disk

raid or not.. multiple diskss or not .. you can still see if oyu can
boot off the other disk
- its still NOT a lilo bug that you get a warning messages, though it may
not be what you want it to say
