Dual booting

Out of curiousness 95 and 98 cannot be dual booted because they have the same start up files. How is it possible you can dual boot XP and 2000???

you can dual boot 95/98 on seperate partitions.

The rule is you just install the older OS first.

Also, if your dual booting with another type of OS besides Microsoft, you should always install the Microsoft first. For example, if you want to dual boot between Linux and XP you should install XP first so that you can alter the boot.ini file to add Linux to the start up options.

You can dual boot ANY two OSes by using seperate disks or seperate partitions.
