If you want to boot Linux from floppy then you don't need lilo. I have Debian linux and boot into that by virtue of putting the boot floppy in when I turn the PC on. Otherwise it just boots Windows as usual. It was a long time ago that I installed it but I believe it was an option on the install that I boot from floppy.
