Most linux installation CD's allow you access to a command prompt
fairly early in the install process (debian does for sure)... so you
could do the lilo work form thre. I don't know which distro you are
using but again debian also provides rescue disk facilities on it's
install CD.
If neither of them work, you could install a 3rd party boot loader.
http://www.gnu.org/software/grub works for me.
