There is no way that you can change the bootdrive from drive C: to D:, or
vice versa. The only way that you can dual boot is to use a dual-booter
program, which would reside in the MBR on the hard disk. LILO is an
example of this. I sent in the chapter on LILO from a book on Linux
System Administration. Read it, and you'll learn pretty much everything
that you need to know to dual-boot your system.
