How do i boot from multiple Operating Systems on multible disks using WinNT4 'boot.ini' file? So Far i Can choose from: "Windows NT 4.0 Workstation" and "Windows NT 4.0 Workstation [VGA mode]" How do i add Win98 from a different HD? Some variables i don't understand in boot.ini are: multi(0) and rdisk(0) I'd appreciate your help. Cheers

I don't use the Hibernation feature on Windows 2000, and therefore would like to get rid of a the 130MB system file on my C: Drive. How can i do that?? Or are there options to decrease its size? Cheers.

Hi, I have Two HardDisks, one on each IDE channel, My current main OS is NT4 on IDE0 Primary HD, 1st Primary Partition(NTFS). I have on the other HDisk on IDE1 another NT4 in the First Primary partition(NTFS) and Win98 on Second Primary Partition(FAT32) on this "slave" assigned HD. I would like to configure the boot.ini file on my "Master-Primary" NT4 so that it includes the other NT4 and Win98 at bootup. The variables are: multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1) whatis - multi(0) and rdisk(0) ???? I would appreciate yur help! Cheers.

No, Both First Partitions on both disks with NT4 are in NTFS. Second partition on second disk is FAT32 The only partitions that are FAT16 are the logical partitions so that both NT4 and Win98 Can access them. However i currently select which disk i want to boot in the BIOS setup. This is just a little inconvenient 'cos i'll probably boot each primary partition once a day. Theyre set-up for different tasks. Considering NT4 has the ability to boot different Operating systems from its boot.ini file i would like to take advantage of this. I Guess 'disk(0)' means what HD, 'partition(1)' means which partition, though what does multi(0) and rdisk(0) mean??? Thanks for your suggestion DosFreak. Cheers.
