Since it looks like you need to reinstall XP anyways, you may want to start
from there. During XP setup you can delete existing partitions and then

If lilo already knows that Win95 is there, you don't have to change anything
in your lilo.conf file. Make sure that you have a Mandrake rescue
disk ready (the one you made when you installed Mandrake), and after you
install Win98 (yes, it will overwrite your MBR) just boot back into Mandrake

Hi
A drive is limited to having 4 primary partitions. Windows gets around
this by placing a lot of drive letters in a single primary extended
partition.
When Mandrake installs, it creates four primary partitions on its own:
The boot, root, home and swap partitions. All four of these partitions
It's perfectly possible. I usually make a fat16/32 partition with fdisk under
dos, and leave the rest of the drive alone (you might consider making a small 16
MB partition at the very beginning of the disk as boot-partition, then later
convert it with the partition editor in the mandrake
use lnx4win (on the 70-2 iso) everything goes on your win98 system
