I already have XP PRO (NTFS) installed on my C: Drive. I want to add a Second Hard Disk (not partition) and Install 98SE, with the option to choose between them a boot-up. I have found one or two solutions, but they seem to want me to re-install XP PRO. I really dont want to re-install - any way around this?

Dual booting XP pro and 98 SE

Get a third party boot manager - I recommend one at (free for personal use). Install 98 with XP drive disconnected. Reconnect Xp, install Boot-us GUI - run GUI to set up boot menu & away you go - easy. I would recommend writing the boot menu to floppy until you're happy it works (then write it to MBR or other partition).
