Just create a Linux boot floppy.  Then once you've
installed Windows 95, use the Linux boot floppy to
return to Linux.  Make the appropriate changes to
/etc/lilo.conf and reinstall lilo by typing
/sbin/lilo.  Then you should be able to boot as you
always do, but this time with whatever windows 95 boot
options you added along with your windows 2000 and
Linux.
