I am having the damdest time getting it installed with Windows NT. I have NT on a PCAnywhere box here at work and cannot remove it, and I wanted to try BEOS also. But the BEOS install hosed my Windows installation and I had to reformat. I can't seem to find any info on this type of dual boot on the net. Anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks :)

I used the Partition Magic that came with the BEOS disk to create one, but then it changed the MBR and I could not get into Windows. BeOS setup then said it could not find a valid BeOS partition. I formated and instaled WinNT and 2k right now, but I would rather have BeOS and either 2k or NT.
