Hello

I have SCO Openserver 5.0.5 installed on a second drive in my pc. This
is the slave drive on the second IDE channel. My dvd drive is the master
drive. I have XP installed on another drive which is the primary drive
on the first IDE channel.

Is it possible to to add something to the boot.ini on XP to allow me to
dual boot SCO and XP. I know with Linux you can use the dd command to
export a copy of the boot sector to a file and then add the path to this
file in the boot.ini to allow dual booting. (I think)

Can something similar be done with SCO to save me having to plug out my
XP hard drive any time I want to boot SCO.

Thanks

Ken
