Default How to install win98 onto windows 2k pro

The simplest option would be to buy a second hard drive, format it as FAT32,
get a boot manager (eg, bootitNG) and multiboot between W2K on one drive and
W98 on the other. Note that W98 will not be able to see the NTFS partition.

If you ask in a W2K newsgroup they might be able to tell you how to make the
system multiboot without buying a boot manager, although it's tricky if W98
is being installed after W2K.
