Yes, I've had it installed in a primary partition (/boot) before. This is necessary with the S2D partition, because the S2D function apparently modifies the MBR.

My concern is that it might not work the same in the extended partition or a logical one. It seemed plausible that a logical partition might not be locatable by the BIOS boot loader, or that the extended partition could not be marked active for some reason. > hopefully an answer by someone else in this list will > help Hope so.
