Partition/Drive Letter basics
All, I have a sata drive that I would like to put four partitions on:
two with Windows Server 2003 and two with Linux. Is there any way to have each partition to boot up as C drive (depending on which one I choose to boot up)? I want them to be C drive for consistency as each partition is used for development and testing. Thanks! |

Re: Partition/Drive Letter basics
Welcome to the forum.
I assume you are just referring to the Windows installations since Linux doesn't use drive letters. Before you install Windows, make the destination partition Active (it needs to be a Primary partition) and hide the other Windows partition. Then install Windows normally, selecting the Active destination partition. To switch between them, you can use a boot manager or you can do it manually (set the OS partition you want to boot Active and hide the other one). (Note that I'm assuming this works for Server 2003 like it does for Windows in general.)
