OK, I read the lilo man page (like I should have done in the first
place) and after giving lilo.conf a minor adjustment this is the result:

<begin output>
 sudo /sbin/lilo -t -v

So obviously I haven't got the syntax correct for WinXP yet, I'll have
to dig around a little more.

Thanks for your help Brad!
