They look good. I'm beginning to think that either your partition
table is corrupt or it's a non-DOS type that's too large to leave
room for LILO.
I can't find an fdisk option to ask for the partition table type.
You could try "parted /dev/hde print" (etc) to verify that both
drives have msdos partition tables. The partition table type
is listed as e.g. "Disk label type: msdos".
FWIW, I always use "raid-extra-boot=mbr-only" but what you have
should work AFAIK.
