This didn't auto update probably because both OS's were already installed by 
themselves.

I first had Win98 installed & running on the C drive. I then put in a new drive 
as the C drive without the Win98 connected. I installed WinXP on that drive. 
Then I decided I would dual boot with drive 0 being XP & drive 1 being 98. Now 
I would like to edit the boot menu to be able to boot to either system. I have 
seen the entry in a boot menu for this combination but can't remember what it 
is. I was hoping someone here would have this combination & be able to post the 
entries they had in their boot menu.
