I am trying to install Slackware on KVM-based

Grub-based distros install fine on said VPS.

Apparently certain builds/versions of KVM break
with LILO:

Since it might not be feasible to ask the outsourced
VPS providers to change their setup, does anyone know
of a workaround that can be implemented on my side
to get LILO to work correctly with these particular
KVM versions?

which version of kvm are you using?

I fixed a bug with those exact characteristics quite a while ago...

According to our hosting company the version of kvm they
are using is:

QEMU PC emulator version 0.9.1 (kvm-72)
