Yes, this is exactly what will be needed. You can do it during installation or boot via the installation CD again and then do it in running system (which may be more comfortable, since you can use GRUB for the initial boot and switch to LILO afterwards.
How would that be possible? Remember that the installation CD can no longer boot the installed system, so the problem complexity is doubled.
As I wrote, you can install with GRUB and switch to LILO later.
Even if grub does not boot, and boot installed system from install dvd does not exist? How?
First, if it does not boot and the reason is not in missconfiguration, then we should fix it. Concentrating on one bootloader can even improve this situation in the future. Please, report all bugs via bzilla so that we can identify whether it is a missconfiguration (typically incorrecd mapping between UNIX devices and BIOS devices) or a bug.
And, I think that booting a system from hard disk it still works via Linuxrc (but I have not checked this in 11.1 Alpha).
Dunno. AFAIK, the entry to boot installed system was removed from dvd for 11.0.
Yes, but there is still a possibility in the Linuxrc menu (I do not mean in YaST or isolinux, but the text menu which you get e.g. when you kill X-server during installation).
