Bootini dual boot

[Lee Byatt]

Sorry guys usually manage by fiddling. Can get the default XP Home to load
from Drive c: but cant get my system to boot from drive d:/
would some one have some xmas spirit and check out the following boot.ini
and see where im cocking up.

Cheers

[boot loader]
timeout=3
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Home
Edition" /fastdetect
multi(1)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Pro
Edition" /fastdetect

Lee, does it give you the option to boot into WinXPPro but doesnt? If
yes, that's not a problem with your boot.ini file.
Try a repair install of WinXPPro.

Both Install work absolutly fine if I swap over the XP Pro Dirve to being
the Primary master.
But in my setup I want it on thwe Primary slave and the XP Home on Primary
master
