Create a partition for Windows 98? (FC3)

Hi,

I'm running Fedora Core 3 and am hoping to create a partition where I
can install Windows 98. I am nervous and unsure about working wtih
LVM; I want 5 GB from hda2 put into a FAT32 partition (see below). How
can I get more information about what LVM is doing, how can I safely
create a new partition, and what tool should I use (parted, sfdisk,
fdisk,etc.)? I have a very bad track record with partitioning and I
hope to do it right this time!

Thanks!

Here is some information about my current setup:
 

#fdisk -l /dev/hda
