You can edit the label during initial installation. Mine said Other with 
no changes made to the label during installation.

Highlight the DOS installation, then choose edit and change it to 
whatever you wish. XP, W2K, dozer or whatever you wish to call your 
other installation.

In my view, for grub to detect the specific OS type would be a 
challenge. Maybe if it detects NTFS it could default to NT and if it 
detects VFAT32, it would default to Windows and FAT16 for DOS. User 
interaction, instead of depending upon the installer to detect the 
foreign OS seems like a better selection.
