Dual Boot Question
Delwin Lee *delw...@technologist.com microsoft public windowsme general Dual-booting two 9x OS's is not as straightforward as dual booting one 9x OS with one NT-based OS. This is because WinNT comes with a boot loader that allows you to boot into another OS. (Having 2 HD's doesn't affect whether you can dual boot

One last dual boot question for Dale..
The dual boot issue is simple enough but more of that later. First if Dell are sending you an upgrade version of XP that means you can only upgrade over another Windows operating system. In your case Windows ME. Dual boots are usually done using a clean install and the full version of Windows XP, not an upgrade.

All the rest of what I say is based on RH 7.2 and 7.3, and hope I am not misleading you. At least it is what I would expect, and hope it may be helpful. If you ever reinstall your XP on C:\ it will wipe out GRUB and you will have to boot RH from another disk and reinstall GRUB (easy).

You're not trying to say that one can: - install 98 on a drive OTHER than the master drive & - use the built in NT boot manager & - successfully dual boot 98 another option too, the SECONDARY SLAVE...in any case my point was that in the event that one would like to ensure that both OSes were dual bootable,

I have heard that the upgrade will allow you to do a dual boot as long as you have a copy of Windows that is not installed on your system.

I took me a while to figure out the dual booting this way but got it working great.

Does Partition Size Matter? Another Dual Boot Question
In fact, the partition used to boot NT should be FAT 16 AND be located within the first 2GB of the first HB, which was not the case. Here's my setup: c: Win98 (2 gig) & d: NT4 (2 gig) When I boot into nt I get a black screen which lasts about 15 sec. then the blue screen. NT finally boots.

HELP: Another dual boot question
A better solution would be to boot to Win2000 first, then remove delete everything pertaining to Win98 from drive c. Do not format drive c. That way you'll leave the Win2000 boot sector intact. Then install WinXP from the CD-ROM and you should wind up with a dual boot option. I have W2000 on d: and W98 on c:.

Another RH9 / Win2k dual boot question
Philosophies differ in whether the applications should be installed into separate partitions to correspond to each OS or not. Our choice is to install applications into the respective application partitions for each OS since removal via add/remove from one OS may affect the use of the application on the other OS.
