No, it doesn't migrate anything. (that's not what I meant) What I was
pointing out was that OSR2 when installed to a machine that already had
WinNT 4.0 on it, would not disturb NT's boot files or goober the boot
sector unlike Win95A which will disturb everything. (requiring the use
of the repair disk to get NT 4.0 back to boot status)
I have installed OSR2 twice over my current WinNT 4.0 installation
without problems. Of course to a different partition/directory and also
without invoking FAT-32.
