hi

i currently have NT4 installed on my machine and would like to also put
Win98 on my second partition.  I have FAT16 on both of my 2 partitions.

When I run setup from the Win98 CD in NT it doesn't let me install and tells
me to try it from DOS.  When i do this it runs ScanDisk and then restarts
the machine without making any changes, so 98 isn't installed.

I've even tried to set the second partition to be the active one using
fdisk, but it won't let me do this either.

how do i get Win98 on the second partition?

please help
