I would install XP in a fat32 partition. Don't use NTFS.
As far as I know, you can't modify the fat32 partition that XP is on, or it 
will break it's crc consistency and it won't boot.

I don't know if that means the partition table in general or not.
You might try getting a copy of partition magic 7 and use that.
If you don't have it, I can loan you a copy of the rescue disks.
