I helped someone with this a couple weeks ago; he had Win2k Server on his
system, and we added Redhat 7.0. It took a couple of tries to get it
working, but it worked fine in the end. The main problem was he wanted to
give Win2k an 8 gb partition, and lilo couldn't find the kernel when it
was above that. I put /boot at the beginning of the disk and Win2k right
after it, and everything worked fine. I did have to install Win2k before
installing Linux.
