Hi,

 

I'm talking about dual booting Vista and Longhorn Server...

 

Both Vista OS's if i may say so.

 

The problem is:

 

Both Vista's assume the partition that it is installed in...as C: drive.

 

In my case, I installed Vista first and that partition is C: drive. Then i installed Longhorn Server and in Vista, where Longhorn Server is installed in is H: drive. Whereas in Longhorn Server it is C: drive.

 

In the Vista bootloader, it boots by drive letter, and therefore since Vista is installed first, C: will boot me into Vista, and it has assigned H: to boot into Longhorn Server.

 

After installing Longhorn Server, I can boot into it and do whatever.

 

Then i boot into Vista, that worked...

 

But if i boot into Longhorn Server again, i cant. It gives me an error such as An error has occurred and some numbers and letters in the bootloader.

 

Therefore 'it' - that is, something has been confused.

 

So now I'm sure how to dual boot both OS's.

 

My questions:

- Will it be possible to install Windows Vista and Windows Longhorn Server on the same computer?

- How do one setup the bootloader's and partitions to house both of these new gen OS's?

- Is it possible to change the drive letter of the partition on which Windows Vista\Longhorn is installed on?

 

Many thanks.
