Figure 35. Logical Drive for the Second Window NT Installation
Repeat the steps for Windows NT and Service Pack installation. You may use the
same IP addressing as you did in the first Windows NT installation but use
another host name to avoid possible domain conflicts.
After the second Windows NT installation make the following changes in the
boot.ini file on your start disk
.
1. Set the default boot entry back to your first Windows NT installation partition.
2. Move the two entries for the second Windows NT installation down after the
two entries for the first Windows NT installation for a better overview in the
BOOT menu during the normal system start.
3. Change the description for the second Windows NT installation to differentiate
the two installations during the system start.
Figure 36 shows a modified boot.ini file.
Create the logical drive for the second Windows NT before you
create, format and partition additional logical drives for data space
and the SAP R/3 installation. The order in which you create the
logical drives is the scan order in which the Windows NT
installation program will recognize logical drives and any created
partitions.
