OS/2, Win2K, and Boot Manager
What OS boot set is he trying to manage? Well, originally he asked "Can you guys recommend a boot manager that works with W98?" Almost any boot manager will work with W98, BootItNG, XOSL or even NT's ntldr. Any one of those properly installed on the hard drive will boot Windows 98. It would be preferable to use one

Dual boot - remove one OS.
"With 2 ext3 partitions and one linux swap partition on" might well be what you mean). drive with Windows installed. Also meaningless. And that is a windows question, not a linux question. Neither a Windows or Linux question, a boot manager question. No, it's a windows question. The boot manager has nothing to do

Lost Boot Manager during Windows 2000 install
The reason that you lost your boot manager in the first place is that you reinstalled Windows 98, which mean you bascially installed it over top of Windows In other words if you reinstall Windows 98 without reinstalling Windows 2000 you will lose the boot manager, so if you reinstall Windows 98 first and then

BTW, PQBOOT has been replaced by IBM's boot manager, but this still won't fix the problem. PQBOOT is a more recent product than IBM's boot manager. It has not been replaced.

Booting into Windows 2000 without the Windows Boot Manager
I was planning on using the built-in BM within Windows 2000. That strikes me as kind of strange. After all, Partition Magic has a boot manager . The Windows "boot manager" is actually the NT loader and I don't think it is recognizable as a "Boot Manager". I think that if you set up a primary partition on a

My Boot Manager Are you still debating making the leap from Windows 95 to 98? Or even Windows 98 to 98 SE? You're not alone. Still not sure which one will work best for ya? My Boot Manager will allow you to install one or more versions of the Windows 9x operating systems on the same computer.

HELP : DOS 6.2 destroyed Windows NT boot manager
Since boot manager can't boot, the system is unbootable, you can't even start Windows 2000. This is not the same as the previous known problem that the Windows install would disable Boot Manager by marking its own partition active. With this new problem, after each boot and shutdown of Windows 2000 you have to boot

A decent boot manager for XP?
But I'm worried that sth will go wrong at this moment and I'll lose access to Windows Boot from your XP CD, choose "repair console" and do fixmbr at the prompt. That will get rid of Grub. That's correct! And to delete the partitions where Xandros is installed you will be safe if you use disk management from within

Boot Manager, #1 DOS, #2 OS/2, #3 Win95 possible?
W2000 disables Bootmanager so that the W2000 install can conveniently re-boot without running into Bootmanager. This is not the same as the reports of W2000 destroying the Boot Manager partition, is it? What you describe is the same problem that existed with W95/98 as well. That is, Boot Manager was disabled but

Windows 2000 Boot Manager
ALL disks read and write and chkdisk, they are just wrong in boot manager. Ben Actually, you are wrong here. I didn't read your whole next post, but I suspect that you are running into the problem, where Windows FDISK creates partitions that are not really a valid size (not in all cases).

Caution installing Windows 2000 with Boot Manager
Uninstalling the bootmanager left me with an unusable MBR. I try to reinstall grub now ... Rgs, Fokke That's why testing it with a spare disk is the preferred option. You can restore a Windows MBR by booting the machine with a Win98 boot disk (www.bootdisk.com), then running the command fdisk /mbr.
