|
|
<P>When you install the OSes, make sure that all are installed on bootable
|
|
partitions. I installed both Windows 95 and Windows NT on Fat 16
|
|
partitions, so this procedure works on Fat 16 drives. If you decide to
|
|
use Fat32 for Windows 95 and NTFS for Windows NT, check to see if your
|
|
version of Linux supports them and, if so, to what extent.
|

<H2><A NAME="ss2.1">2.1 Installing Windows 95</A>
|
|
</H2>
|
|
|
|
<P>Install Windows 95 on your first drive. This will be your C: drive.
|
|
Remember to create the Windows 95 boot floppies when prompted to do so.
|
|
<P>I have found that it is better if the Linux drive is removed from the
|
|
system when installing Windows 95, so that it is never detected and it
|
|
doesn't exist as far as Windows 95 is concerned.
|
|
<P>At this point, if you did everything correctly, you should be able to
|
|
boot Windows 95.
|
|

|
<H3>Installing Windows NT 4.0</H3>
|
|
|
|
<P>Install Windows NT 4.0 on your second drive. When you create the
|
|
partition on this drive, make the partition bootable. Not all versions
|
|
of Linux support NTFS, so I created a FAT16 partition, just to be on the
|
|
safe side and because I wanted to exchange data between the Windows
|
|
drives.
|
|
<P>When Windows NT installs, it will detect the presence of Windows 95 and
|
|
will create an entry for it in the NT OS loader and you should see three
|
|
entries in the OS loader menu as follows:

|
|
<P>At this point, if you did everything correctly, you should be able to
|
|
multiboot to Windows NT and Windows 95.

|
<H3>Installing Linux</H3>
|
|
|
|
<P>Install Linux on your third drive. When I installed Linux, I only had
|
|
Windows 95 installed so I only added the Windows 95 partition to Lilo.
|
|
You can go ahead and install all OSes while installing LILO, or edit the
|
|
Lilo configuration file later. However you decide to do it, I will show
|
|
you how the /etc/lilo.conf file is supposed to look in the next section.
|
|
Once Linux is installed, you should be able to boot to Linux.
