If you have one or more free 5.25" bays.. the size that take CD/DVDs, get a
Hd caddy cost £15 to 17 UK pounds. Put on end of primary IDE cable
(MASTER).
WITH PC OFF, remove caddy, add HD an old 2 to 4 gig one, load up any verion
of Linux, or dos or win3.x or 98, one system to each HD put it in an boot to
the system.
If you have a fast PC and a large < 10 gig you could alos run XP!
Then you don't even need any bootloader.
and is doesn't matter if you make a real mess of any system!
