Dual\Multi Boot

[Russ]

I have already accomplished a multi boot situation on my
pc, 98, 2000, XP. I created a primary boot partion (C:\)
of 100mgs. and three more logical partion to which I have
install the OS's to there respectives. I have done all
this through DOS, running the appropriate commands for
install. My question today could I or would I be able to
accomplish the same situation as I stated above, But from
a windows enviroment eg. I install 98 as directed for a
new installation on its partion. I boot into 98 and
insert my 2000 disk and select a new install and install
to its partion. I then boot to 2000 and repeat with XP.
Would this still create a multi boot menu\enviroment with
all the boot info located on my boot partion (C:\)?

Thanks for the help in advanced.

Yes, this will work, as well. As long as you remember to choose Custom
Installation, and that you want to specify where to install to.
