Install Another Operating System Wizard

  • This wizard helps you install another operating system (OS) on your computer. For example, you can install Windows XP on your computer yet still keep a copy of Windows 98. You can create a partition for your data that different operating systems can both access. This way, if your primary OS should crash, you could still access your data through the additional OS.

    The wizard begins by asking you what OS you want to install. It then asks you where you want to install the OS, only showing those locations that are valid for the OS type selected, and makes suggestions (which disk, before or after a certain partition). It selects the correct file system type, checks the OS size against available free space, and warns you if there is not enough space available for the OS. The wizard will not resize existing partitions making them too small to function. The wizard checks the location (including the boot code boundary in effect) for the existing OS and prevents you from allowing an additional OS to disable the original operating system on the computer.

    The wizard does not place the new OS in the boot menu of any boot manager (BootMagic included). If you want to boot to the new OS through a boot manager when you start your computer, you must configure the boot manager yourself.
