Install 98 then install xp. XP will take care of everythin. | |

the other way round that is to use partition magic/boot magic, hide the xp partition and set 98 partition as active. then when you reboot, it see's a blank C: drive. Install 98, install boot magic and setup the 2 partitions. | |

But wouldnt installing 98 then edit the MBR and point to the 98 partition as a primary boot volume, so not giving you the option?? | |

Yup, you can still dual boot - partition your HDD and stick WinXP on the primary partition. | |
