Windows ME Upgrade

I have just bought a copy of WINME off of Ebay. My computer has a 10 gig hard drive & is partioned. The first drive is partitioned as 2 gig, the next is 8 gigs. Win98SE is on the first partition. I want to install ME to drive D: as I don't want to upgrade my previous version of Windows98, I want to dual boot between the two. Is it possible to install Windows ME to drive D: & dual boot between the two?

Not on the same phyisical hard drive, without a third-party boot mangager, or something of that sort. (I've never used any third-party boot loaders, so I wouldn't know exactly how to go about doing that)
