MultiBooting 2 XP Pro's and Linux
Hey. Your proably thinking what the fu**, but it is needed. I have a Windows XP Pro on C:\ drive (the root drive) and another XP Pro on a second drive, with Linux installed as well so basicalli
IDE 0
Partition 0: C:\WINDOWS (boot.ini, ntldr and all that crap is here)
IDE 1
Partition 0: Linux
Partition 1: D:\WINDOWS
lilo is in the MBR.. Now in the boot manager i can choose 'Windows XP' and it will bring up the NT loader allowing me to choose from the two xp installs. Is there anyway I can boot the second xp instllation straight from lilo.
so instead of this:
Lilo :Linux
: Safe Mode
: Windows XP (when i choose this i get the NT loader with this)
: Windows XP Professional C:\
: Windows XP Professional D:\
i want it like this
Lilo: Linux
: Windows XP Professional C:\
: Windows XP Professional D:\
I hope I made sense. Basicalli I want to remove the need for NT loader.
