I have an older system, with some SW relics that I use almost daily under
Windows 98SE on drive C:. I Want to migrate to XP, So I Installed XP on a
FAT32 formated system extra drive. I did a full install on D: but was never
prompted for multiboot operations.
Now Drive XP on D: has full control of the system.
The boot.ini file shows only the XP pro data.
-----
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP
Professional" /fastdetect
------
I can't get back to the C: drive at all.
If I add .................^
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows98 SE"
I get an error complaining about the hal.dll missing on Windows\system32
but I think this is not a windows 98 file.
The boot.ini file is on drive C:
I tried running repair from windows XP CD boot, but the bootcfg /rebuild
does not detect the C: 98 installation!.
Any help appreciated. I would like to get my 98 stuff back soon!
Thanks so much.
