Says who? (Don't use LILO ;-)
Well, your kernels must be on a 0.90-superblocked RAID-0 or RAID-1
device. It can't handle booting off 1.x superblocks nor RAID-[56]
(not that I could really hope for the latter).
If the superblock is at the end (which is the case for 0.90 and 1.0),
then the offsets for a specific block on /dev/mdX match the ones for /dev/sda,
so it should be "easy" to use lilo on 1.0 too, no?
(Yes, it will not work with 1.1 or 1.2.)
