[ltp] Windows partition

[Douglas E. Mitton]

When I first started installing Linux many-moons-ago, DOS/Windows had to
be on the first primary partition of the primary-master drive.  I just
always do it that way now.

Once I did a single experiment putting Windows95 on the second primary
master partition and it worked, I had Win 3.11 on the first partition and
wanted to triple boot Win3.11, Win95 and Linux.

I don't have any links on the rules for this, I can only how I tend to do
it each time I install a dual-boot plus system.
