You don't have the option of installing it during the installation, but you can skip the lilo and then install grub manually prior to rebooting.

In all honesty, the easiest way to do it is just install lilo, reboot into your system and then install grub once your system is up and running. But as with most things, you have options. There's nothing wrong with waiting until after the system is up to change over to grub.
