Hi

   The bootsector related files of all OS should be within
8gb(1024 cylinder limit).so use utility like partition magic
to create small /boot linux partition(say 30mb) by resizing
any one of the previous partitions.if you are able to create
a small /boot primary partition then put LILO in either MBR
or in the first sector of /boot partition.If you create
/boot as logical partition the you must definitely put LILO
in the MBR.(/boot is the mount point for the partition).
