I haven't done it too many times myself, but I've heard horror stories (if you can describe destroying NT in such a way) about trying to use solely lilo and not the prescribed method of the how-to (NT loader -> lilo -> linux). Since it's very easy to tell either loader to automagically load your OS of choice, I never considered it to be too much of a problem. Hope that helped a little perhaps.
