Is tripple booting possible?

I currently have Windows 7 installed, and plan to install Ubuntu, resize the Ubuntu partition, backup the boot code...Install XP on the new unallocated space, boot into Ubuntu using the Live CD, initialize Grub, put the bootcode back in, then add XP to the boot code...Should this work? Or would I be pushing it? The only issue I can find is that I would need to Slipstream RAID/SATA Drivers into my XP disc for it to work...And would like some help with that.

Yay! Now is there any way I can find out which SATA/RAID Drivers I need for XP?

you need to find the text mode drivers for your specific raid/sata controller.

I'm not sure if I found the right ones...I found the following on my Motherboards website:
Marvell 88SE6320 SAS Controller Driver V3.1.0.22&V3.1.0.2406 for Windows 32/64 bit XP, 32/64 bit Vista,Windows 32/64 bit Windows 7.(WHQL)
Marvell 61xx SATA Controller Driver V1.2.0.7100 for Windows 32/64 bit XP, 32/64 bit Vista, 32/64 bit Windows 7.(WHQL)
Would those be all I need to Slipstream to XP?EDIT: This too:
Intel(R) Matrix Storage Manager V8.7.0.1007
Install -Intel(R) Matrix Storage Manager V8.7.0.1007 for Windows XP/Vista/2003/2008 & 64bit XP/Vista(WHQL).
Driver -ICH10R AHCI/RAID Driver for Windows XP/Vista
MakeDisk -Make ICH10R AHCI/RAID Driver Disk for Windows XP/Vista.

if you slipstream them all then windows will use the relevant ones.
