Starting with 2.6.36, I started getting the above message.

FWIW, the above problem was fixed, recently in the latest
release of LILO, V23.2, which one can download from:
https://alioth.debian.org/frs/?group_id=100507&release_id=1670

I'd seen messages around the net asking about this problem,
so thought I'd post the solution here in case anyone read this
list, or might later be searching for solution.
