Uhhh, I told ya long time ago not to do this.... :blink:

First copy Ntldr and the Ntdetect.com from you WinXP installation CD (folder I386) to C drive, in the root directory.

Then create Boot.ini file like this:


Code:
[boot loader]
timeout=30
Default= multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(0)\windows

[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(0)\windows="Windows 98"
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\windows="Windows XP"
Try this and let me know if it work.

In the case it does not work, then copy these files (Ntldr, Ntdetect.com and Boot.ini) on the floppy and boot form the floppy.

Good luck!


ps1 - You can get lilo with any Linux distribution.
ps2 - Floppy has to be formated with XP. Aks some friends to format it for you.
