It is only supported as a second partition on the boot drive. I don't think you are allowed to further partition, but that might have changed with APFS. > 2.

If you aren't going to use Windows much, why install it in bootcamp? Use WINE, most things work, and you don't lose tens of GB to it. Short of that, VirtualBox is cheap (as in free) and you can offload the virtual drives to other storage rather than eating your boot drive. In nearly all cases when someone thinks they want to run Bootcamp, they're wrong. Nearly. -- "I used to hate the sun, because it'd shone on everything I'd done.
