There is mention in the man pages of an option to get around some win2k
bug, but not sure if it applies:

-win2k-hack
           Use it when installing Windows 2000 to avoid a disk full bug.
After Windows 2000 is installed, you no longer need this option
(this option slows down the IDE transfers).

I had it going before bed last night, booting off the reduced ubuntu boot
image on the open cd. Very slow, but that boot disk is anyway.

Which version are you running? I unmasked 0.72.

Are you using kqemu (the proprietary kernel module to speed things up)?
