The trouble is that Windows wants to boot from "C:", not "D:".  You can use 
lilo to remap the BIOS and fool it.  My Windows drive is on hdc (hdb is my 
cdrom).  Here's the relevant part of my lilo.conf:

# Windows 98 on hdc
other=/dev/hdc1
    map-drive = 0x80
        to = 0x81
    map-drive = 0x81
        to = 0x80
    table=/dev/hdc
    label=Win98
