Windows 2000 (and probably earlier) adds OS/2 to boot.ini
Posted: 05 Apr 2021, 05:11
After my win2k install on my ThinkPad T41 fell apart, I reinstalled after installing OS/2 Warp 4.52 on a FAT16 partition. NTLDR picked up on OS/2 and added it to the boot menu. Both OSes are working well.
Windows 2000's multi-booting documentation only mentions DOS, NT 4.0 (though NT 3.51 is also known to work with Windows 2000 NTLDR) and Windows 9x.
However, the time-out in boot.ini was set to one second instead of the usual 30.
