Adding 98SE to XP Home Upgrade

[Guest]

On my primary hard drive I have upgraded a 98SE to XP using the XP Home
Upgrade CD. I want to install 98SE ON A SECOND HARD DRIVE and have a dual
drive setup. What is the easiest way to do this?

To install 98 after XP if XP is using NTFS, you will need bootmanager
software.

Sorry, I should have given more info, I have been investigating so long I thought I'd just get a suggestion for a partition manager or two! I have XP Home (upgrade, not clean install), Fat 32, on C drive. I just want to add a second hard drive and put 98SE on it, not on the same drive. I have all the instructions from Doug's website about adding 98 to XP, but when it comes to step 6, putting the XP CD in again, since it is an upgrade and not a full XP Home, will it ask me for the 98SE CD again, then the XP Home Upgrade cd? I'm hesitant to try it, but feel lucky!

If it does then just put them in, but I doubt it.

Thanks. I had tried something similar before on a different computer. When
it asked for the 98 cd the whole process aborted and the install froze. I
was afraid it might happen here too. Thanks again.

Make sure you have a current and complete backup.
