It's just how lilo works.

There is a hint in the manpage as to a case you may want to be in a
different directory other than your / directory (the -r switch, which
does a chroot to the dir you specify).  The example given where this may
be useful is if you are repairing a setup from a boot floppy.

Ours is not to reason why, just to get on with it!!!
