In addition to the other answers given, I suspect find . -name "*.tar.gz"

If i am not wrong then u want to have a dual boot ?
you can install linux and win2k in any hard disk drive but u have to install
win2k first and then linux and u can write it on the MBR on first drive and
make it working but try and make a bootable linux floppy at the time of
linux installation.

if you just want the contents of /root copied into another user's home

cp -r /root/* /home/newuser
you can't create another user with the same uid as root (to my knowledge)
you can however create another user and make it part of the root group.
