Boot.Ini and recovery Console
Is it possible to install W2KPro in a way that it becomes a boot time option and that NT 4 is still an option until I am comfortable that it will all work? If so, is there a way to have this new OS have access to the slew of programs I have already loaded, or will I have to load them again for that OS?

missing f8 boot option ?
The W2K boot, has more in common at this point with the W9x boot, in that you can hit a function key at the start of boot to get to the 'debugging' options. Here you get a VGA boot, and also a basic command line boot. :-) Hence the seperate boot options from WNT4, have disappeared. Best Wishes That makes sense.

Other bad things: no defrag. checkdisk only from boot disks. And, several more. Checkdisk can be run at boot time with the /F option if an issue occurs. Otherwise, it's not possible to run it with the /F option on the boot filesystem from the OS that booted from that filesystem. This is a safeguard.

If yes, then use Vista boot Pro. Install it in XP. (you won't need it after you install the Vista boot). IF NO, then you need to choose your boot options in your bios. Why?
