You mean, at which point during booting you can decide to boot WinXX
instead? From lilo.conf:

# You can put a customized boot message up if you like.  If you use
# `prompt', and this computer may need to reboot unattended, you
# must specify a `timeout', or it will sit there forever waiting
# for a keypress.  `single-key' goes with the `alias' lines in the
# `image' configurations below.  eg: You can press `1' to boot
# `Linux', `2' to boot `LinuxOLD', if you uncomment the `alias'.
#
# message=/boot/bootmess.txt
#       prompt
#       single-key
#       delay=100
#       timeout=100

Just uncommenct the "prompt" and set a timout. Then after running lilo
and rebooting you should see a LILO: prompt where you can type win or
whatever you called it.
