this is not trueWhen using raid-extra-boot, lilo treats second disk as bios #0x81, 3rd disk as bios #0x82 and so on. That to say - if your first disk fails and BIOS will substitute second disk in place of first, making it 0x80 instead of 0x81, lilo will not boot too, exactly in a way why grub installed into /dev/hdb (that was e.g. temporarily plugged into another machine just to make it bootable etc) does not want to boot from it when it will be /dev/hda again (when returned back into it's own machine).
