Well, I think this used to be the case. I remember having problems with
RAID on older (6.0 maybe?) RHL installs because of this problem. Bear in
mind, your fstab file USED to read something like

Hi Keith,
If you have only one IDE connection to use, but want to have the
two OSes installed on separate drives, you could try this: get one
swappable drive rack and two trays to mount the hard drives in. Then you
can swap them as often as you need to, with a minimum of fuss.

LILO needs to write to the MBR of the first drive. Bad thing to confuse it
by swapping one drive in and out, IMO at least (I don't have first hand
experience with it, just making a guess).
