If you need to get rid of Vista quickly (for an update, for example) you can use
the Windows Xp Recovery console and fixBoot to restore the old boot.ini system.

[I was unable to install Vista RC1 and RC2 until I did this, since I had a boot
from Beta 2 there... ]

Word of caution: Should you have your main OS on the partition flagged as Bootable
Vista might do some 'fun' with it, at least that is what happened with my XP64bit.

Safest thing is to use your BIOS to select 2 Boot Drives and alternate between
them depending on what you want to run, that way you avoid the hassle altogether.
[Thats what I am going to do next update... As well as backup up.. often..]
