It looks like that LILO can only boot from LVM1 partitions that are not spreaded
over more than PV.
There are also other checks in the code that can easily.

So if we want to assume that lilo is supposed to handle this situation properly,
than it's a lilo bug.

Otherwise we can ask lilo-installer to fail in this sitaution.

There is still the problem that partman-auto-lvm cannot ensure that we will
arrive at the end of the
installation with a usable /boot.
