Here is an extract from my /etc/lilo.conf on mandrake 10.1, showing how 
dual booting with ubuntu is set up:

image=/mnt/ubuntu/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.8.1-3-386
        label="ubuntu"
        root=/dev/hda7
        initrd=/mnt/ubuntu/boot/initrd.img-2.6.8.1-3-386
        vga=788
        read-only

This assumes that you have the ubuntu partition mounted in "/mnt/ubuntu".

Just run "lilo" from Mandrake, and it will work. Change your /dev/hd* 
entries appropriately.(Use cfdisk or similar to confirm the devices for 
each partition.)

cheers
