I saw an answer to this a while back.  I need to do it myself sometime, so
I saved the message:

Some time ago, I had Debian and Slackware (Slack on hda4 and Debian on hdb2).
My approach for dual boot, for example in Debian was:
/etc/lilo.conf:

boot=/dev/hda
compact
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
vga=normal
delay=20
# ZIP drive settings
append = "aha152x=0x140,11,7,1"

# DOS bootable partition
other = /dev/hda1
  label = win95
  table = /dev/hda
# DOS bootable partition config ends

# Linux bootable partition config begins
# Debian latest kernel
image=/vmlinuz
  root=/dev/hdb2
  label = Debian
  read-only
image=/mnt/slack/vmlinuz
  root=/dev/hda4
  label = Slack
  read-only

This means i have slackware mounted in /mnt/slack, and you have to do the same
in slackware.
