As root, put a floppy disk in, and run 'mkbootdisk /dev/fd0'. This will
create an emergency boot floppy with your current kernel. From there you
will be able to mount your existing filesystems on /mnt, for example, and
then recreate your lilo config that Win2K will blow away (only if your lilo
config is in your MBR).
I would create the disk first, then test the above theory so you know you've
done it properly before installing Win2K.
man mkbootdisk
man lilo
