To all who responded with advice I appreciated it.
I discovered in my dual boot system that you can have both w98 & xp
working. In my case w98 was drive 0 and xp drive 1. If I disconneted
drive 0 drive 1 could not boot. If I removed drive 1 similar
situation, and in each case I adjusted the bios appropriately. I
found a web site which created a boot disk which provided the missing
files to allow me to boot to disk 1 when disk 0 did not work.
I eventually was able through disk management to reinitialize drive
0, and install XP on it. When I installed it as an NTFS partition it
would not run, regardless if XP formatted it or Partition Magic did.
When installed as FAT32 it boots and runs.
Now I just need to get the maxblast overlay installed to be able to
see all of the drive.
So other than not getting full use of the drives size it does work.
Thanks
Steve
