I just installed win98SE on a primary fat32 partition. However, I had win2k already installed prior to this and now I can't get a dual boot. It only boots into win98SE. Will a repair install of win2k solve this?
I always thought that for multi booting MS OS's, you had to install them from oldest to newest. I would think that with a repair of 2k, then it would work.
I found what happened. I did the default install for 98 and didn't change the drive to G. I didn't get to do a repair install as win2k couldn't read the partition anymore. I had to format and do a fresh install. Oh well. at least anything that was worth saving was backed up.
Well, basically, what happened was that the win98 partition took over the C:\ assignment and the win2k partition was set inactive and win2k setup couldn't read it.
In setup it said something like "--Inactive OS/2 (something else)"
