Is the /home as safe residing in the extended partition?
you can have it wherever you like but you need to be careful with what
you do in regards to usage of it.

the best way is to

* have a different partition for _your data_ (not your home)
* make you home in / (root partition) as you don't store there anything than config files
* create a link in your new home to the data partition

like this you can share data from different os (linux or not)

and use ext3 and the native XP driver for windows
