Basic and Dynamic disks

This is a discussion about Basic and Dynamic disks in the Windows Software category; Is it possible to dual boot (on two separate physical disks) a basic disk (Win98) and a dynamic disk (Win2000) with both OS's recognising each other on boot? I know that a partitioned disk won't support this configuration.

How about separate disks?

Only Win2K understands Dynamic Disks.
