Hi all,
See the * at the end for my lucky story.
Look in my sign to see my system (look for SCSI dream)
On that same system I had :
Partition 1 : FAT 16 nothing
Partition 2 : NTFS Win2k
I then decided to install win98SE on the first partition (both under 8Gb). For that, I did activate the first partition and hide the second one.
Everything went smoothly (I did setup /ntldr) and with PM60 I was able to activate the win2k partition to boot again in win2k.
My problem now is when I attempt to add the win98SE to the boot loader of win2k. If I add the line :
c:\="Microsoft worth nothing"
to the boot.ini file I have the following error message :
error ...(cant read because it is out of the screen)
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\bootsect.dos
I understand that the loader is trying to locate the win98se partition on the second one but this partition is on the first one...how could I force him to look on the first one ?
Thank you for your help

Here is my story....
I bought another SCSI 7200 RPM 68 pin drive from an anandtecher...the drive is working everything is fine 🙂
The day I received it I decided to not open my computer and to wait the next day...everything was fine...
The next day, I tried to boot....Damn my main disk was not detected by the SCSI bios....
I plug and unplugged everything (notice that my new hard drive has nothing to do with this) and I finally understand something, but first here is the setup :
1 Atlas 10K 18.2 68 pin U2W ID0
1 IBM 7.2K 9.1 SCA U2W ID1
1 Atlas IV 7.2K 9.1 68pin U2W ID2
So, during the night, about 4 of the 80 pins of the IBM drive unweld (cant figure this)! That is why the Atlas 10K was not detected -> the IBM is the first on the chain and the fact that some pins were no more connected give him the ID 0 and the priority !
The next day (2 days after the last working boot up) the IBM was really dead...so I take a lens and realized that there were now about 20 pins unweld...
The good news is that my HDD is not really dead. I know someone who is equipped with tin welder and I should be able to recover my HDD to backup my data.
Because I removed the IBM drive, my system is now working. But I dont have any personnal data even Diablo II character !
Yesterday (5 days after the last working boot up) my Antec 250W PSU died on me ! Am I lucky or what ?
I replace it temporarily with a DEER 300W PSU I had...
So here was my little story
