Booting Multiple Operating Systems with Minix

Booting Multiple Operating Systems with Minix

14 March 2004

Minix can coexist on a hard disk with Windows or Linux. The hard part is figuring out how to choose which OS to boot. Here are a few hints:

Using the Minix boot monitor to start other operating systems.
Starting Minix from MS-DOS or Windows.
Starting Minix with the Windows NT 4.0 loader (Ian Cowell).
Booting Minix 2.0 on a PC with WinNT or Win2K Installed (This is an update of Ian Cowell's article referenced above).
Starting Minix with the Linux LILO system (Ashutosh S. Rajekar).
