I'm dual-booting 32-bit Mandrake and 64-bit Fedora Core 3 (no SELinux) with Mandrake's LILO on the MBR. I can provide you my /etc/lilo.conf changes if you want. The only issue I ran into, other than the aforementioned one re SELinux, was the following -- I share /tmp, swap, /home, and a shared /data partition between the installs. When I first did the Fedora install I let Fedora format the /tmp and swap shared partitions, but Mandrake then complained about "unsupported filesystem features" (even without SELinux). Re-formatting with Mandrake and then re-installing Fedora without re-formatting got things going again.
