omitting a leading space in an 'append=' is a common error that is often made.
as you state, 'it does not always apply', but in lilo it has, and lilo is a
very common place for error to occur.
but then again... just for sake of knowledge, i decided to rewrite lilo.conf
with a new label and remove leading space in 'append='.
surprise, surprise. md8.1 booted with out errors. looks like 'they' may have
rewritten lilo to remove need for leading space.
peace out.
