Re: format xp and install 2 os in 2 hard disks
Firts create 2 partitions (boot from a diskette, and launch fdisk).
Then start by installing the older OS, say win 98, then, when install is complete and functional, boot from you XP CD, and install it on the second partition. XP will automatically set up a 'boot menu' allowing you to choose between OSes.
Don't hesitate to ask along the process is something is unclear.

Re: format xp and install 2 os in 2 hard disks
is it safe to format winxp by just deleting the partitions?
