Installing LILO
 
I'm installing Arch .5. During the install I select to install LILO as my bootloader. It installs it to the MBR, though, without prompting me. Is there any way to have it install to a particular partition, not to the MBR?

"Is there any way to have it install to a particular partition, not to the MBR?"

You tell lilo where to install the bootloader in /etc/lilo.conf. To install it on the MBR:
boot=/dev/hda

To install it in partition 3:
boot=/dev/hda3
