I've done something simular - except that I hide the DOS partitions from Windows so it can't mess them up (and that my two HDs total 15G - 2G for Windows the rest for DOS). There's a program that comes with Symantecs Ghost called gdisk that can do this - if you search for gdisk you should be able to find an older version for download (instead of downloading the entire trial package on almost 15MB file just to get gdisk).
