You don't have to wipe out Win95, but you should consider backing it up,
as any repartitioning can be risky (although I have never had a problem
with either fips or Partition Magic).
Look in the mini HOWTO directory, which has quite a few examples:
Linux+DOS+Win95+OS2
Linux+DOS+Win95
Linux+OS2+DOS
Linux+Win95
Linux+WinNT
Win95+Win+Linux
Caution, you may find yourself using Win95 less and Linux more as time
goes on.
