Hi, uhm...sry, sent this to the wrong adress ;)

IMO, there is no need to bother wether it is a logical/primary partition.
Usually you can have up to 4 primary partitions. So, no problem to put it=
 on  a primary.
As stated in
http://opendarwin.org/en/articles/booting_on_x86/
you should only bother 'bout using the correct filesystem type. In this
case, UFS.
Of course you should think about your Bootloaders. I don't know how to
Dual Boot Darwin & XP but i think you will make your Darwin UFS partition
the active one, as that is where the machine will boot from.
