In my limited experience, I've found it easier to load W2k first since it wipes clean a non-Windows OS. Load Linux afterwards since it is kinder to its "roomate" and tries to coexist. I would consider having two disks if you don't mind spending a bit more.
I'd certainly endorse both statements, particularly about having separaete discs, because when, as you will have to in my experience reinstall Windows if they are both on one disc the inevitable consequence is that it will demand the whole disc and you will lose your linux install. Unless anybody knows how to hide linux partitions when installing windows.

Well, with windows NT, it ain't so unless you find the whole process of installing windows so bad, you must keep you eyes shut. Just don't accept the defaults. Vince Littler
