Clear your partitions, create a 4gb (FAT32) partition and install
Windows 98SE on that like you normally would. Then boot from Windows XP
cd and install it on the rest of your harddrive (NTFS?!). Been there,
done that. Not hard at all this way. Windows XP knows how to deal with
Windows 98 SE installs, you'll get a menu on bootup.

Hehe yus, nothing better than being able to compromise(word?) between Win98
or XP on any day

Well, I can only tell him about my experiences with 98+XP. So that is
what I told him. I bet 2000 works similar but I didn't feel the need to
point that out.
