nope
Grub and I think LILO both have the ability to switch the drive bios
numbers around thus fooling windows. But the good news is that you can
leave win98 on hda1 and just install grub or lilo to hda. I have had
this set up for quite a while even though I never boot into windows
anymore. I dont even know if grub will boot windows acctually... havent
had a need to boot to windows since I changed over to grub... oh well...
I hear it works though.
