    dual boot

    okay, i've done dual boot before (Lilo with NT, 98 and Mandrake, NTLoader with Win2K and Redhat), but the following seemingly simple one is a little struggle fer me

    I have my P4 PC with one hardrive full of Windows XP Pro. I installed it first, and it is my primary master HDD on ide device 0.

    Then I disconnected the drive, and took another clean HDD, made it master quick, put it on ide 0, and installed Win 98 very quickly.

    Now... is there a way to make the Win XP NTloader give me the ability to dual boot these two OS on the different drives? the boot.ini file is a little tricky in regard to this. Doesn't help making a second entry with "disks" changed to "1". Nah-Nah. I need some other exit I guess. Thanks for helpin.
