*shifty eyes* maybe... but I know other people who have also tried it
and failed, and I have yet to see a written account of it happening.
So - guilty until proven innocent. ;)
I do remember trying it with windows 2000, and I think I got it to
boot
my redhat install, back in the days. I vaguely remember something
about
editing .ini or .sys or something files on windows, but I don't have
windows 2000 or redhat any more. And you know what they say about
memories being created, so it may (or may not) be possible :)
Agreed.
I can say that back int the redhat 6.3 days, i was able to get redhat to
boot from the NT4 loader. And i could have sworn that there was a HOWTO
on the LDP, but i can't find it now.
So at least 5 or 6 years ago it could have been done. But with such nice
bootloaders as grub and lilo, why would you want to bother with XP's...
just create a boot disk for XP, just in case you hose grub, and you'll
always be safe.
