- Is it possible to have DOS & WINNT on the same diskdrive without WINNT
- using any space on the DOS partition? I tried to change the first byte
- of the DOS partition so that WINNT would not recognize it, but that was
- not any good solution, WINNT somehow tried to install on the DOS
- partition anyway...
-
- I would prefer to use FDISK or a boot diskette to switch between OSes,
- WINNT run MUCH faster in a single NTFS partition than with a DOS C:
- partiton and an NTFS partiton.
-
- By the way, I for a while ran WINNT & 386BSD from the same disk without
- any problems...
