There are two ways of going about this. You can use Dual Boot (which allows
both OSs to reside on the same physical partition, or you can make a second
partition for OS/2. Win95 needs to be loaded on the boot partition (C:), but
OS/2 doesn't care, so you can put it on a logical partition such as D: for
instance. Then you have to install boot manager (in order to do this, you
must select the Advanced Installation Item). With boot manager installed,
every time you boot up your system, it will ask you which OS you want to load.
Sounds difficult, but it's not.
Steve.
