If you are installing one of the many linux compilations (Red Hat, Slakware) then towards the end of the installation it will ask you if you 
wish to install the LILO software.  You will be asked which partition to store the boot record (the native linux partition) followed by the 
the required linux kernel and then finally the location of your DOS partition.  Works like a charm!

Just leave a message of you have any further questions.

Regards,

Carl
