    I don't think so, here is my lilo.conf

    boot=/dev/sda
    lba32
    root=/dev/sda3
    timeout=100
    prompt
    install=bmp
    bitmap=/boot/debianlilo.bmp
    map=/boot/map
    delay=100
    vga=normal
    append="--acpi_skip_timer_override"
    default=WindowsXP
    image=/vmlinuz
            label=Linux64
            read-only
            initrd=/initrd.img
    image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.8
            label=Linux
            read-only
    other=/dev/sda1
            label=WindowsXP

    This has now changed to install to /dev/sda3 and I am using the NTLDR to boot
    which appears to work OK. I would still like to use LILO if possible as I am
    experimenting with different Kernels and is far easier to just use LILO to
    change the boot options.

    TIA

    Wackojacko
