I need to dual boot... one HD two partitions each XP pro SP2
I'm starting from a blank HD, so is it as easy as install the first OS.
During the Setup process to create a partition of 20 gig and continue with
the install.
Once the first install is done, boot from the CD again, and create a
partition in the in the unpartitioned space, and let XP create the boot
menu.(modify the boot.ini)
[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
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP
Professional" /fastdetect
Then once the OS is installed the boot menu should appear?
Sounds simple, but is it really?
