It works a charm, never used GRUB on my amd64s (one at home, one at
work).

It seems correct (though I don't know your setup), what kind of issues
are you experiencing? You can safely ignore that warning.
I'm using a software RAID setup here at home, see my lilo.conf's common
section:
boot=/dev/md0
raid-extra-boot = mbr
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot-bmp.b
bitmap=/boot/lilo/gallery/boot.bmp
bmp-table=227p,233p,1,7
bmp-colors=13,0,,11,0,13
bmp-timer=76,30,11,0
default= 2615r5 # 2615r4 # 2615r2 #2615r1 #2615 #2614r6 #2612r9
keytable=/boot/it-latin1.klt
lba32
prompt
timeout=50
append="pci=biosirq idebus=33 acpi=off video=scrollback:255K"
