???? It always baffles me when people start talking about this 'procedure' when installing windows 2000 with a Linux system.
You should simply include the partition in your bootloader and instruct your bootloader to halt at bootup. The only reason i can think of to install win2k first is that it zaps your mbr wich results in some boot trouble when using lilo (among others). Simply removing and then reinstalling lilo will get you going none the less. I bet bootpart is a very nice tool but there is NO need to reinstall anything if you know how to set up your machine.
