Linux doesn't care about the marking, only the contentsm, but windows doesn't care about the contents, only the marking, so it is perfectly possible to have a "Linux drive" (your nomenclature) that windows treats (erroniously) as its own property. Neither a Windows or Linux question, a boot manager question.

None of these Windows has to be on C:. So, you can either convert C: to FAT16, reinstall with a FAT16 C: (I recommend putting your Windows boot drives elsewhere), or use a third party boot manager such as System Commander. This third party boot manager will allow you to have more than one C: drive which normally do

Anyone know how to install the boot manager ....
One for DOS; one for Windows; another for the Boot Manager? If the Boot Manager is in DOS (it definitely should NOT be in Windows) we have two more available Primary partitions. If it is in a Primary partition all its own we only have one more. I suppose you could have Windows in a Extended Partition but that is

Linux and the Windows 2000 boot manager?
This is a Windows limitation. The same is also true of Windows NT's boot code. Your Windows NT partition is a 5 GB partition, which means that Win98 doesn't have a chance of booting. Boot Manager must also be installed within that 2GB boundary, so placing it at the end of an 8 gig drive doesn't work, either.
