Dual Booting XP & 98SE

[Charles]

Hi,
I was wondering if it would be possible to create a dual
boot with Windows XP Home and Windows 98 SE. The problem is
that Windows XP Pro is already installed and I now want to
create the dual boot with Windows 98 SE. I have another
partition to install 98 onto, but most sites however seem
to recommend installing Windows 98 SE first and then
Windows XP Pro. And I don't feel like spending the whole
day, reinstalling XP and programs.

Thanks
Charles

Yes, this can be done. The method depends on the type
of system partition you use: NTFS, or FAT32?

UMM ... Why would want to reinstall Windows 98 again anyway ....I'm curious if 98 allows any type of activity that XP does not........
