I've only had experience (mostly bad) with NT4; none with Win2K.  It may
have been that I was just infinitely thick, but after reading the
aforementioned "booting with NT" mini-howto and trying a few times to do it
the right (lilo on hda), I finally had to allow NT to boot linux via lilo
on hda3, the linux partition.

I was under the constraint that NT was already loaded and I didn't want to
re-install NT after Linux.

Would welcome pointers to doing it the right way.
