I tried that on my friend's PC once, and it bombed the win2k partition. I
had 
installed grub in the mbr. This approach worked fine with Win98 and XP, but 
somehow crapped the win2k partition out. Does anyone have any experience
with 
this scenario?

I just set up three machines dual boot W2000/RH7.3.  The systems came
pre-installed with W2000, I used
Partition Magic to halve the NTFS partition to 15G (from 36) and then loaded
Linux on the now unused
portion of the disk. Note, I used LBA32 to get to the /boot partition.  I
used grub as the boot loader and things work just fine.  
The problem I running into now is the two extra drives on each system.  I've
placed a fat32 fs on both and now trying to figure out how to share them via
Samba (when linux) and still be available when under Windows.  It seems when
a user mounts a vfat volume, he ends up owning every file on the drive.
