OK. Right now I have 2 ide HDD as primary master and slave. All the
OS-related stuff is on the 20GB pri master. First partition is
primary/system with one logical drive; it's 2GB FAT16 and contains
Win2K. The remainder is a single extended partition with 6 logical
drives, all of them likewise FAT16. NT4 SP6 is installed on the first
of these; Win98SE, on the second. The last four logical drives are just
apps + data.
I do use the native NT/2000 OS loader. My boot.ini looks like this:
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT="Microsoft Windows 2000
Professional" /fastdetect
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINNT="Windows NT Workstation
Version 4.00"
C:\="Microsoft Windows 98"
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINNT="Windows NT Workstation
Version 4.00 [VGA mode]" /basevideo /sos
Hope that's enough info.
