according to http://www.annodex.net/cgi-bin/man/man2html?8+lilo

99 invalid second stage index sector (LILO)     

Errors 99 and 9A usually mean the map file (-m or map=) is not readable,
likely because LILO was not re-run after some system change, or there is
a geometry mis-match between what LILO used (lilo -v3 to display) and
what is actually being used by the BIOS (one of the lilo diagnostic
disks, available in the source distribution, may be needed to diagnose
this problem).
