I don't think NTcan boot an extended partition. If you do this you will
actually be booting from a single partition, just that your system
directory will be on the extended partition. That is, the Win95
partition will be C: for _both_ NT and 95 and NT's system directory
will be on D:. I'm not sure how good an idea this is, since some apps
(even bits of the OS itself) assume that the system directory will be
on the boot partition. IMHO, you'd be safer installing '95 and NT on
the same primary partition.
