I don't do any of the above from Windows. I just use the Windows fatx partition as a handy place to store the stuff that grub needs for boot. This partition (hda1) is always there, whereas my linux partitions may disappear any time I feel like installing a new distro. grub wouldn't be too happy looking for its stuff on hda7 (for example) when I've just wiped that partition for a new install. If you know a better way to do this as well, I'm open for suggestions.
