Not sure personally, but in all my experience (both NT and 2K), whenever you have to dualboot with a 9x OS, the 9x OS always has to go on first, cause installing it always alters the MBR so boo.ini isn't even referenced. I don't knwo about simply putting in another HD with 9x on it and editing boot.ini, though NT seems quite accommo[censored] and probably would co-operate if you got the syntax OK
