Well, I partitioned my 30gig as so 20gig-2k pro 10gigs-98se

So I installed 2kpro first then 98se on the 10gig
I do not see any dual boot optioin, it just automatically boots into 2kpro. So I formatted the 2kpro and reinstalled, but still no dual boot option.

HOW DO I GET THE OPTION TO DUAL BOOT??? with 2k pro and 98se already installed????

I know you have another thread going, but I'm not sure which one you'll check first, so...

If you install Win98 after 2k, you'll overwrite the dual boot feature installed with 2k. You'll have to install Win98 first, and then install 2k in order to dual boot.

I've been fooling around with W2K Server and WIN 98SE for the past couple of weeks. So here goes...

FDISK and create 2 partitions, preferably half and half for each OS of your hard disk space (FAT32). Install WIN 98 into the primary partition (mostly likely C:) Before going further, install all device drivers and make sure there are W2K drivers for the same devices and that they are compatible with W2K. Otherwise, you're in for a long day.

Insert the W2K Server into the CD drive and install. Setup will detect 2 partitions -- just install on the other partition (most likely D:,keep it FAT32). Once you reboot--it'll give you the option of booting to WINDOWS or WINDOWS 2000.

Hope this helps.
