If you're gonna dual-boot with NT, the best thing to do is keep it FAT16 and NTFS. I've heard 5.0 can see FAT32 but haven't heard of any FAT32 mounting software for 4.0.
I agree with vdavid, but with additional info.
It's my understanding that Beta 3 of NT 5 will likely be able to upgrade directly from Win98 or Win95, (NT 4 can upgrade from Win 3.1 or Dos) without losing registry and device settings.
See the PowerQuest site (http://www.powerquest.com, I believe) for details on their utility (Fat32.exe) enabling NT 4 to read Fat32 partitions, (for free) and to write to them (for a fairly reasonable price). I'm waiting for NT 5, myself, so I can't tell you how well it works. You might try the free version, first, and let us know how you make out.
