These "Warnings" I get too when running lilo after getting my new computer
about 5 months ago. I boot from a scsi disk, and I have to go into the bios,
disable the ide-controllers, restart and login again, run lilo, reboot, enter
the bios, enable the ide-controllers, and then reboot...
If I run lilo while my ide controllers are active I get the warnings you
describe and lilo doesn't work anymore..
