Installing GRUB in a partition

Dear Author(s)!

Some days ago I tryed to install GRUB to a partition. The version is 0.96, also the latest release. Well the MBR is full, because of a diskmanager. GRUB starts fine, but some OS can't starts. On this computer I have Windows 98 (first primary partition) + Windows 2000 (second primary partition) (now I plan Linux:-)). GRUB is in a 3. primary FAT partition. But I'm not able to start Win98 (tryed with: chainloader +1 -root (hd0,0)-, chainloader (hd0,0)/boot/grub/win98). This was the error message: "You must specify a valid path for command.com". But: when I installed GRUB in the MBR on an other computer that doesn't requires diskmanager, it started correctly win98/win2000 from the first/second primary partition.

I'm not sure, whether is a bug or not, or is there anything wrong what I do?
Please help me, if you can, because I didn't find any other bootmanager that supports to install it in a partition, like GRUB.

A lot of thanx for your help.
