Windows moving active partition mark

[Micha Feigin <michf@math.tau.ac.il>]

I am tring to run linux and windows 98 together on the same drive using
lilo.
I installed lilo on a partition containing the kernel.
I then set the active partition mark to that partition.
As long as windows isn't started then this setup works greate (the lilo
boot prompt comes up and I can chose betwin linux and windows).
The problem is that when ever windows starts it moves the active partition
mark back to its partition. 
Is there a way to stop this behaviour?

Thanx
