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.

Put the W98 as primary master, so the systems boots with w98. Then put the XP-pro CD in the drives, and choose repair. Then there should be an option to fix the dual-boot.
Good luck
