Hi,
Well actually win 98 is on partition 1 on my drive 1.
Ok...this is importend...you can install windows ..95..98..mill...xp...xp prof...on any drive position....afterwards...move it to another position and it will only revert to C:\ and carry on.
Now if this drive 1 becomes drive 2 or 3.....well now drive 1 must provide a bootloader for itself and the following drives. Now if you should remove the now first drives and this original drive MBR is still intact it will boot in any position as C:\. I my case I just pull out drive 1 and leave xp in drive 2 in position and it boots.
Linux is absolutely finiky about its drive position.
look all the above I used...tried...experienced...and it is working for me. It is not hearsay.
Goodluck....Enjoy
