How to install Win 98 after Win 2000?

[Aanand]

Hi Guys
I am currently operating on a system with win2k and I want to install win98 as a second OS. I have 2 partitions in the HDD. As far as I know it is difficult to do after installing win2k as several files would be overwritten by Win 98. Can you suggest me a website with a step-by-step advice for dummies like me to install Win 98 after Win 2000? Thanks.

i had a exp.... installation will be aborted with the msg can not install ... aonther o/s at the 1sr parition {forgot the actual msg .. meaning was same}

1 take a backup of boot.ini, remove the booting line for 2000
2 installed 98 on a diff partition.
3. edit the boot.ini as before with adding the boot path for 2000. restart
4. got the dual boot menu.

i did as above.

warrior ur problem was an MBR problem
all u needed to do was clear the MBR before installin 98 againthis can be done by using fdisk /mbr command in dos mode or from linux

i tried with this ,,,,, flshed the mbr and installed 98 with /is mode. but 98 detects that there is a higher version installed. after that i did it with editing the boot.ini....
