triple boot question

[Cevas]

I have win 98 installed on my 10 gig hd on c: primary master
I have win2000 pro installed on my 20 gig partitioned as two 10 gig's set to d and e 2000 is on e: secondary master
this leaves drives e: and f:
I want to install mandrake on one of these are there any special considrations for installing mandrake 8.1
ie does it have to be installed on the primary master drive?
or can I just install it onto e: or f: a secondary drive?
then how do i boot into mandrake - is it like dual booting with windows
I have dual booted with win 98 and win 2000 already and it works like a charm will mandrake be as easy?

Keep in mind that Linux has to be installed within the first 8G if you want to be able to boot it properly. That's from my own personal experience, but I always create a /boot partition (that's the partition that has to be within that limit). Without that partition, you should be fine.

Make sure when installing to create a boot disk, otherwise you will not be able to boot into linux after you restart.
