maybe put a:

other=/dev/hdb
label=xp
map-drive = 0x82
to 0x80
map-drive = 0x80
to 0x82

in your /etc/lilo.conf

and of course run lilo.

0x82 could be 0x81 if the drive is on the same cable as your first
drive. (ide1)
0x80 is on ide0 normally.

This immediately above assumes your linux drive is /dev/hda on ide0 as
master and your xp drive is /dev/hdb on ide1
if you are on ide2 then the bios number is 0x82
