Installing Another Operating System - Additional Instructions
When you click Finish, your computer will reboot to the new partition. This will not be successful because there is no operating system on that new partition. Print these steps for reference in installing the new operating system and adding the new OS to the BootMagic Configuration menu.
· Scenario 1: BootMagic Installed and Enabled
· Scenario 2: PowerQuest BootMagic Installed and Disabled or Not Installed
Scenario 1: BootMagic Installed and Enabled
1 When you reboot the computer at the end of this wizard, BootMagic overrides the settings made by PartitionMagic, so you see the BootMagic menu with your existing operating system (or systems) seen as startup options.
2 Boot into the existing operating system, so you can get to the BootMagic Configuration screen.
3 Open the BootMagic Configuration program (click Start > Programs > PowerQuest BootMagic 8.0 > BootMagic Configuration).
4 Click Edit > Add.
The BootMagic Add OS dialog lists all the system operating systems detected by BootMagic.
5 Click the Advanced button to view all your systemÂ’s partitions, including those that BootMagic doesnÂ’t recognize as containing an OS (for example, Linux on a logical partition).
6 Select the new partition you want to add to the menu.
7 Click OK.
8 Define the menu properties you want > click OK.
9 Boot from the operating system CD or diskette for the operating system you are adding.
a. Make sure that the boot sequence in your system's BIOS is set to boot from either floppy diskette or CD first and hard drive second. Some machines may not be able to boot from the CD drive, or the CD itself may not be bootable. Check your documentation to verify this.
b. Upon reboot, place disk 1 of your operating systemÂ’s installation floppy disk or CD in the appropriate drive to start the installation.
Important (Windows NT 4.0 only): If NTLDR.EXE is installed or moved beyond the 64K boot code boundary, Windows NT will fail to boot. NTLDR.EXE is usually located near the beginning of the partition in which it is installed. When you create partitions using PartitionMagic, if NTLDR.EXE is not located within the 2 GB boundary, the OS will not boot. If you hide a Windows NT boot partition, you must manually edit the Windows NT boot initialization file (BOOT.INI) to point to a new Windows NT boot partition. This can be done by opening the file in a program such as Notepad and resaving it with the same file extension.
10Install the operating system into the new partition, as directed by the on-
screen instructions.
11Reboot, and choose the old operating system from the BootMagic menu at startup.
12Go back into the BootMagic Configuration screen,
and set up the new operating system options.
When you reboot the next time, the BootMagic menu will display both the old operating system and the new one. You will be able to choose either operating system.
Scenario 2: PowerQuest BootMagic Installed and Disabled or Not Installed
1 When you reboot the computer at the end of this wizard, it will hang because there is no operating system in the new active partition.
2 Reboot again using the operating system CD or diskette for the operating system you are adding.
a. Make sure that the boot sequence in your system's BIOS is set to boot from either floppy diskette or CD first and hard drive second. Some machines may not be able to boot from the CD drive, or the CD itself may not be bootable. Check your documentation to verify this.
b. Upon reboot, place disk 1 of your operating systemÂ’s installation floppy disk or CD in the appropriate drive to start the installation.
Important (Windows NT 4.0 only): If NTLDR.EXE is installed or moved beyond the 64K boot code boundary, Windows NT will fail to boot. NTLDR.EXE is usually located near the beginning of the partition in which it is installed. When you create partitions using PartitionMagic, if NTLDR.EXE is not located within the 2 GB boundary, the OS will not boot. If you hide a Windows NT boot partition, you must manually edit the Windows NT boot initialization file (BOOT.INI) to point to a new Windows NT boot partition. This can be done by opening the file in a program such as Notepad and resaving it with the same file extension.
3 Install the operating system into the new partition, as directed by the on-
screen instructions.
At this point, you could reboot and use the new operating system, but there would not be an easy way to choose between operating systems at startup. The following steps enable you to configure BootMagic, so both operating systems are available as choices at startup.
4 Reboot with the first PartitionMagic rescue disk, and insert the second rescue disk when directed to do so.
5 From PartitionMagic, set the partition that includes your old operating system active.
If you are planning to install BootMagic and you do not have a FAT or FAT32 partition to install it on, you can also use PartitionMagic to create that partition.
6 If you do not have BootMagic installed, install it.
7 Open the BootMagic Configuration program (click Start > Programs > PowerQuest BootMagic 8.0 > BootMagic Configuration).
8 Click Edit > Add.
The BootMagic Add OS dialog lists all the system operating systems detected by BootMagic.
9 (optional) Click the Advanced button to view all your systemÂ’s partitions,
including those that BootMagic doesnÂ
’t recognize as containing an OS (for example, Linux on a logical partition).
10Select the new partition you want to add to the menu.
11Click OK.
12Define the menu properties you want > click OK.
When you reboot the next time, the BootMagic menu will display both the old operating system and the new one. You will be able to choose either operating system.
