I could never get LILO to work properly under W2K much less XP and grew
tired of trying. I just ended up leaving a boot disk in the floppy drive
that I pushed in whenever I needed to boot into Linux.  However I decided to
try GRUB with the 7.2 install and to my joy it really has worked quite
nicely.
