how to install lilo instead of grub on fedora

uh ok, i did that, turns out lilo is installed already. guess that would 
explain the lilo.conf.anaconda file i saw in etc/

Question:
so can i just rename the grub.conf file and then edit the 
lilo.conf.anaconda file , rename it to lilo.conf and the run /sbin/lilo?
or is there something more to switching between boot loaders.

example of what i'm asking if i can do:

# mv /etc/grub.conf /etc/grub.confOLD
mv /etc/lilo.conf.anaconda /etc/lilo.conf
*edit the lilo.conf file correctly*
# /sbin/lilo to commit the changes
