Dual oot With WIn 98 and Win NT

[hongfee]

I have recently decided to make my machine dual boot with these OS and have proceeded with several steps in order to run these OS.
I have created partitions:
c:\ boot FAT16 with 1500Mb
d:\ Win 98 FAT32 with 2500MB
f:\ WINNT NTFS with 3500MB
while other partitions are my data files which i think is not important to be discussed here.
I have installed win 98 on d:\ and it runs perfectly.
During the process of installing Win Nt, i have faced an unsolved problem after those temporary setup files are copied into c:\ and when it restart to perform the actual installation. A blue screen comes out with lots of text describing:
*** STOP: 0x0000007B (0XF7813BD4, 0XC0000034, 0X00000000, 0X0000000)
Inaccesible_boot_device
It gives out a advice telling me that:
Restart and set the recovery options in the system control panel or the /CRASHDEBUG system start option.

Can anyone please tell me what is it all about and please help me. I need it for my final thesis project to be run.

THANX A LOT!

Run Fdisk and check which is the active partition. If it is the D: then you will not be able to boot into NT as it is FAT32.

I normaly configure dual boot PCs to have C: as FAT16 with Win98 installed on it, then start the NT install from Win98. I would recommend only creating the C: using Fdisk then adding D: during the NT install.

I actually found it quite easy to have a win98SE/Win2k dualboot which didn't require any partitions...
