Install linux using pcq cd and finally while installation of lilo skip
it.
Remember to note your liux partition like /dev/hda5.
Copy your kernel image vmlinuz (about 500kb) to dos/window partition.
Boot in window and select dos.
Run "loadlin vmlinuz root=/dev/hda5"
assuming your kernel image is vmlinuz and linux partition is /dev/hda5.
No need mess up with lilo.
Enjoy!!!.
