There is an added trick, it made the difference for me:

with GRUB,you can
1) change the active partition before starting it. That is that I use to 
select hda1=FreeDOS and hda2=Win98
2) you can swap whole partitions around, this is usefull when you have a 
WinXT that was instaled as hda1 and now has moved fo hdb (and some hda 
partition is visible to it, making it !=C: )

This helps putting everithing in the right place just befor booting ;-)
