Partion Magic8

Hi guys. I got a copy of Partition Magic 8 and am trying to use bootmagic to let me have 2 os's. I already have win98SE installed on a primary partion, but want to put winme on a separate partion. Should the partion for winme be primary or logical? I have heard that 2 primary partions make your system unbootable. I have got BootMagic so mabey that would help? Any ideas?

-both partitions must be primary -in any multisystem configuration, only one primary partition must be visible and active, while all the other primary partitions should be hidden (you can have more than 2 ppartitions =>more than 2 OS) -when select Win98SE, BooMagic will hide WinME and viceversa.
