Sure it's possible, but why do you prefer lilo ?

Re: booting Arch from a lilo floppy

Hi Aer,

The reason is that I am not familiar with GRUB and also I do not know if i can install it in a floppy instead of MBR.

Thanks for answer me

GRUB is more powerful and easy to use than lilo, see here, it's a good tutorial !
