I just upgraded 2 July 2009 (yesterday). I never used Lilo. Today it was
included in the upgrade (I should have unchecked it, but did not). When
I clicked cancel in the pop up window (informing me that it is essential
that I run lilo config) it was ignored until the third time, when I
received a crash error.
One pop-up: E: lilo: subprocess post-installation script returned error
exit status 1
Quote from upgrade is complete window , details:
Errors were encountered while processing:
lilo
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
A package failed to install. Trying to recover:
Setting up lilo (1:22.8-7ubuntu1) ...

I have removed it using Synaptec. I hope Grub is unaffected.

Lilo gets installed on dist-upgrades, due to the kernel image recommending it.
Is this intentional?
