both lilo and grub can boot the root filesystem as a logical volume.
but grub cannot boot /boot from a logical volume.
With lilo it can either be a separate lv, a partition, a disk, what you
what. With grub it should be outside of the logical volume manager
(IIRC, there is a patch for grub to use /boot on a LV but I've never
found/tried it)
