I just finished another XP with 4.7 install, and my two cents for what
their worth. When I did this last install, I simply installed 4.7 on the
first have of a 10GB drive, then loaded XP on the second part. Once
completed, I had to use the rewrite on the mbr using /stand/sysinstall.
Under this operation, I have a copy of disk0 (I think) that contains the
load point for each partition. Each partition then contains a copy, XP
has one, BSD has one. Using the fdisk option under /stand/sysinstall I
was able to rewrite the master boot record. Works like a champ, I'm even
mounting the XP secondary drive to pull files off of it from time to
time! I love this OS!

His Faithful Servant,
Mark
