I have all three co-existing on one hard drive, with LILO in the MBR. When I choose to boot the partition with Win95 and WinNT, the Microsoft OS loader is started, and I get to choose either Win95 or WinNT. I installed them in this order: WinNT, Win95, and finally LILO in the MBR. Linux was actually installed before WinNT, since I ended up installing it several times. There are also severl HOWTO's available on Win95/NT+Linux - do a search on the RedHat web page for Windows (or Win95 or WinNT)... Configuring a 2nd hard drive is logically identical to using a separate partition, as far as setup is concerned.
