I have exactly the same problem! I have looked at the lilo (patched)
source code and I think that lilo doesn't know about the major/minor
number of the raid devices when making a temporary device /tmp/dev.0
resulting in a access failure. Lilo dies then.  This could be a kernel
problem (I'm using 2.2.10 patched with raid0145) because somebody
reported success with this configuration on vanilla RH6.1
