Can I dual boot with win98 and NT4?

[Jerry]

Can I have a dual boot system with win98 and NT4? or is it one or the other?

I understand NT4 is faster than 95/98 running appz like office and stuff, is this correct?

Thanks

Yep... Win98 and NT4 can be installed on the same PC.
BUT, remember that Win98 won't "see" any NTFS partiton (it can not read NTFS) and NT can not read FAT32 partitions (they will be listed as "unknown" under disk administrator)

So, your 1st partiton has to be FAT16...

Correction, NT can read FAT32 partitions if you install a utility released a few weeks (months?) ago. Sorry, can't remember the name of the utility...
But even with that utility, NT can not boot on FAT32 partition.
