-- LILO is looking for something and can't find it (partitions changed or
moved)
-- your mbr is screwed up (try fdisk /mbr)
-- your boot partition is above cylinder 1024 and you don't have latest
LILO version
-- something is just plain wrong with your hard drive (media failure)

Those are my guesses.....
