I can't imagine it being all that different from NT 4.0.  I haven't used
W2K before but if you can multiboot into DOS then you should be able to
create your disk image, add it to your boot.ini (NT Boot Manager want's
to be in charge).


Quick Tutorial (sorry if this sounds redundant)

With NT 4.0 on a system I usually after installation boot from my Linux
boot disk.  From linux I run dd if=/dev/hda2 of=/bootsect.lnx bs=512
count=1

This presumes your linux boot partition is hda2.  It creates at the root
your disk image (bootsect.lnx).  Next I mount the dos partition (I
normally specify vfat for the partition type).  Copy the image to dos
partition.  Then I modify the boot.ini.  Here is what mine looks like.


[boot loader]
timeout=5
default=C:\BOOTSECT.LNX
[Operating systems]
C:\BOOTSECT.LNX="Red Hat 5.2 - Linux 2.2.x"
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT="Windows NT Workstation
Version 4.00"
c:\="WinTENDO 95"

Anyway, hope this helps...

Anyone had any experience in dual booting with Linux and Win2K ?

Is it hard like NT4 is/was to dual boot, or easy like Win95/98?

I am almost ready to upgrade my Win partition and was wondering what I 
would be in for.

Thanks
Darryl
