Wanting to create a Dual Boot - XP on C drive and 98SE on E drive.

[John Avolio]

Hi to all out there,

I'm running Windows XP Home using a 40gig HDrive. I've got the HDrive
partitioned in 2. Windows XP Home is on the C drive. And I want to put
Windows 98SE on the E drive. Thus creating a dual boot. Can it be done and
how? All hekp would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
John

I maybe wrong but if you install 98 on the E drive you will lose access
to Xp as it will overwrite certain boot files. What I have always done
is to install 98 first then install Xp, works everytime. So you could
install 98 but you will have to re-install Xp I believe. As I stated I
could be wrong though.
