You'd like to create a floppy with lilo on it?  You don't need to 'boot
LILO'.  You can create a floppy that will contain the kernel to boot right
into Linux.

You can use your installation disk to boot into Linux.  When prompted with
the LILO prompt, enter the following:

linux root=/dev/hda1 initrd=

Substitute 'hda1' for the proper root device.

You can also put lilo on a floppy.  Ask if your interested..
