These are loggers, so I guess nothing terrible would happen. But I
wouldn't kill them anyway.. I would fix the problem, not make it worse.

I don't unmount anything before running lilo.

You didn't try it?
My 'extra' small non-raided boot partition usually contains
1. /boot with some files used by lilo (boot.*, chain.b, map...) -- copied from
'raided' partition
2. the kernel - 'zImage'
3. /dev with just few needed special files like 'hda', 'hda7' etc.
4. lilo.conf
