Boot from some set of rescue disks (http://www.toms.net/rb/).

You may have to re-create some /dev entries yourself (man mknod)
        mknod /dev/sda b 8 0
        mknod /dev/sda1 b 8 1
        mknod /dev/sda2 b 8 2
        mknod /dev/sda3 b 8 3
        mknod /dev/sda4 b 8 4

Then do
        fdisk -l /dev/sda

Mount your old root at /mnt, read-write.  Something like
        mount -t ext2 /dev/sda2 /mnt

Now you can modify /mnt/etc/lilo.conf to include windows
        cat <<EOF >>/mnt/etc/lilo.conf
        other = /dev/sda3
                label = loose
                table = /dev/sda
        EOF

Then run
        lilo -r /mnt

P.S. This was from memory, no warranty ;)
