98, you could format drive C as FAT or FAT32. You should then format the system par-
tition that will hold Windows XP as NTFS. Finally, for multiple booting to be successful,
the boot partition must be formatted using a file system that all installed operating sys-
tems can access. For example, if you are dual-booting between Windows XP and Win-
dows 95, the boot partition (as well as the system partition on which Windows 95 is
installed) would have to be formatted with FAT.
Converting a FAT or FAT32 Volume to NTFS
Windows XP Professional provides the Convert command for converting a partition to
NTFS without reformatting the partition and losing all the information on the partition.
To use the Convert command, click Start, click Run, type cmd in the Open text box,
and then click OK. This opens a command prompt, which you use to request the Con-
vert command. The following example shows how you might use switches with the
Convert command.
Convert volume /FS:NTFS [/V] [/CvtArea:filename] [/NoSecurity] [/X]Table 2-2 lists the switches available in the Convert command and describes their functions.

directories accessible by everyone
/X Forces the volume to dismount first, if necessary, and all
open handles to the volume are then not valid
