Anyone knows of a tutorial on how to make possible to boot Win95 (fat 16 or
32) from an extended partition?

I am going to need it for testing purposes and I would like to have it
installed natively on my computer without having to touch the first
partitions on my only hard drive.

This is an Intel C2D, 320 Gb Sata II Drive, 2 gb of RAM. I already have Boot
Magic installed, but Grub (linux ubuntu) could be used too.

Thanks in advance.

I think it might be better to install and run it in a virtual machine
from within your current Windows installation. Otherwise you might
have a few other technical difficulties trying to install it on your new
hardware. Also, you can have up to four primary partitions on a basic
MBR disk, or you can have three primary partitions and one extended
partition, could you not use a setup like that?
