I have never had any problems setting up dual boot with Linux/95-XP.
The M$ partition is always hda1, and the boot partition is always a Linux
partition, hda2? Works with Lilo and GRUB. I presume that the first few
bytes of the MBR tells the bios where to go and this is small enough not
affect the loading of M$. In your case tell the bios to boot from hdb(c).
