At the lilo prompt, you can tell lilo what init level to boot into. You
probably have seen someone boot into single user mode by "linux single".
It's the same thing, except I think Single user is init 1. Init 2 is
multiuser with X, 3 is multiuser with xdm or kdm. Not sure about 4 and
5, but 6 is shutdown. 0 is system halted.
You can also change init levels at the command prompt as root. Just
type "init 2". It's too easy. That's what I do when I hose up all my
config files and then need to restart all my daemons at one time. It
takes about 5-10 seconds for me to change init levels.

If the different configurations could be set up after booting, Rob
could use runlevels or a script that ran off of a desktop icon. If
the configuration requires a boot, I think he needs a lilo command.
