Reply no to the question during install of "install lilo to the MBR" and it will not install it to the MBR. You will have to boot with a floppy.
I want to re-install Knoppix, but do not want it to overwrite my windows MBR. How can I stop it from installing LILO?
Thanks

In the event that you DO overwrite your MBR you can easily fix it like this:
Boot a WIN98 floppy and enter
fdisk /mbr
(I think the syntax is right)
