I have used System Commander Deluxe with Linux many times and had no
problems. If you are using System Commander as your boot manager, install
lilo to the first linux partition. Do not install it to the mbr because
that is where Sys Commander sits. After installation, Sys Commander should
detect the new partition and linux boot record, then it will automatically
update its boot menu.

The latest version of lilo does not require the kernel to be in the first
1024 cylinders.
I've never tried using system commander, but I guess that you could loose it
and use Grub or Lilo as a boot menu instead.
Suggest you check out
