I believe it is actually possible to get the W2K boot loader to boot 
other OSs like linux and solaris x86, but I haven't done it myself. You 
would probably need lilo installed on the linux boot partition rather 
than in MBR and then modify the c:\boot.ini in W2K to point to your 
linux install.  You will need to google for the details though.

Be warned though, I believe it contravenes the MS EULA to boot any 
non-MS OS using their boot loader. (as if that would stop people dual 
booting, actually it seems more like a challenge to me :))
