you can do it : firstly you got to download a prog called 'MrBooter' (i can send it to you if you wish). this will allow you to create two active partitions on your hard disk. then install win98 on the first and solaris on the second. when you boot , your comp will give you a bootloader option asking you which system you wanna run, select , and thats it! hope this helps.

Hi!!

I have 2 HDD. 13GB & 2 GB..I have installed Win2k Proff in the 13 GB HDD. Is it possible to install Solaris 7 on the 2 GB HDD and dual boot between Win2k & Solaris. OR Do I have to install WIN2k and Solaris on the same HDD.

Please send me the Mr Booter also.

Please advice.

Thanks & Regards

Rony
