Hmm. Now as far as I can see there is nothing special with lilo,
it is just another program. Perhaps the only unusual part about it
is that it reads and writes the entire disk, rather than a partition.

Do you also get such errors using dd on the disk?
(It doesnt matter whether you read or write, so probably
reading is better.)

You confirmed: no loop involved.
No raid involved either?
