Hello there,
Yes it is same across all the distros provided you have the same version
of fdisk on all of them. It so happens that the fdisk which comes
with Debian 2.1 is an older one and the lilo also which comes with 
the stock debian 2.1. So, if you upgrade to Debian 2.2 ( Aka Potato ),
you might not have this problem.

But, as always I maybe wrong. ;-)
