roughly, after booting from the disk, from a command line (xterm or tty)
you'll need to mount the debian partitions that you would want to work
with (mount /dev/hd5 /mnt/hda5) and from

lilo is automatically set up
If you mean how well they (e.g., grub and ext2) work together, any

if you mean install the lilo boot sector on the DOS floppy then no,
