It has to be that way; whoever planned out the installation for Windows 
basically required that the first system disk (either EIDE or SCSI) be 
the Windows system disk. Unfortunately there's no way to chicken out of 
doing that. You can choose which partition you want the Windows 
installation to go on to as long as it's primary (1-4) and not extended 
(4-8?).
