Hi There.
I'm doing some testing with Vista RC2 and I have cloned my Hard drive
using Norton Ghost so that I could eventually load a clone partition of
xp as a second partition then upgrade it to Vista RC2. I have been
sucsessfull installing vista as a new installation on the second hard
drive, but wish to clone then upgrade to test the programs in vista
without the need to re-install everything.
Cloning the hard drive was easy, but I am unsure how I can point the
boot.ini so I can choose which WinXP to load.
The boot ini looks like this:
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP
Professional" /fastdetect
I have tried entering another line like:
multi(0)disk(1)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP
Professional" /fastdetect
Some help please?
Thanks
Tom
