Duel Boot Question

[Warwick]

Is it possible to duel boot 2 instances of Windows 2000 on
seperate partitions? I've seen alot of information on how
to duel boot 2000 with other OS's but none on having a
2000/2000 setup. If it's possible to do it, does the
boot.ini need to be repaired after the 2nd install like
with a 2000/98 setup?

Go through a second Win2000 installation and select
the appropriate destination folder when prompted. Boot.ini
will by adjusted automatically. By the way, it's "Dual Boot" -
most duelling is done with pistols at dawn.

Yes it is possible. You can load both with no problem.
Since it's not an earlier version of windows that you're
installing as the second OS, the NTLDR file is not
affected. As long as you're installing an equal version
(your case) or a more recent version of Windows as the
second OS, you're fine and you can bootup in both.

Looks like I didn't spell it right either time I wrote
duel/dual. ) Not enough sleep!
