Dual booting a Win98 image & WinXP image

by dkmc00 . Updated 22 years, 2 months ago

Hi,

I want to dual boot between 2 images. One image
is Win98 and the other is WinXP. They are both
created with Norton Ghost. The computer I want to
load them on is a P4,1.7 Ghz,256 mb ram,20 Gig
capacity. I have created 2 partitions.

I have tried dumping the images, but I am able to
boot from only one at a time. The only way I can
boot from the one partition is to hide the other
partition. I have tried using the boot.ini file
and PartitionMagic’s Bootmagic without success.

I have a hunch the trick lies in the order the images are dumped and probably with certain switches with Ghost.

Any tips would be highly appreciated.
Thanks
Dan
