Howdy,
  I know you can have Win98 as the first partition and then Win2K as the
second.  But, Windows may get confused if some Windows is not the first
partition.  I think I would try the install again, Dave, and organize
the partitions like this:
  Win2K
  /boot
  swap
  /
 I have done it that way successfully.  I don't have any dual boot
machines at the moment, but I have done this in the past.  It should
work fine, unless the system is an old one and the Win2K partition is
large.  In some old systems, the /boot needs to go in the first 4 or 8
gig of the hard disk.
Good luck,
Ralph
