I use a "reborn card" as network card. This card protects the hd from
unwanted changes (very necessary in a school environment).
This card comes with a BIOS and does the partitioning itself.
I installed two partitions for windows 98 which are hidden, when I
boot into Linux. This two partitions are in the gap. So my 
partitioning is
Linux (hda1)
Windows (c:)
Windows (d:)
Linux (hda2)
Linux swap (hda3).

Windows needs to be near the beginning of the disk to be bootable.

Bye,
Frank
