Hi Marc,

There's several ways to do this. Personally, I like osbsbeta so much, I
use it on all the multi-boot computers I administer, regardless of what OS
is installed on them.

You'll find it in the tools subdirectory of your CDROM, or in the tools
subdirectory on the ftp site. Copy it to a DOS boot disk, boot with the
disk, and run the executable. This will create a folder called
os-bs, cd into it, run osbs20b8.exe and follow the prompts.

Dru
