Have you install them in one disk? or tow harddisk?

I have installed mine on two harddisk. One for xp, the other for win2k. I haven't tried to put them all under one hardisk. Maybe you can, but you definitely needs two partitions. Here is my own instructions for your reference.
System Overview:
CPU: AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3200+ 2.21 GHz.
RAM: 1.5GB of DDR 3200 400 MHz
Harddisk 1 (M) Disk 0: ST3200822A 200GB
Harddisk 2 (S) Disk 1: Maxtor 6Y060L0 60 GB
Motherboard: DFI LanPartyUT nF3 250GB chipset (including graphic, LAN driver)

Step 1: Partition Harddisks and install Windows 2000 on slave harddrive.
First set harddisk 2 to be master temporally, and install Windows 2000 as normal steps. Inside windows 2000 partition harddrive using either Windows Computer Management for disk management or using third party partition software like PQ Magic 8.0.
After installation of Windows 2000, the partitions should look like this,



Till now just format those partition for windows not for the partitions for Linux. Also leave first 120 MB of Disk 0 for /boot under Linux. Keep all partitions to be FAT32 not NTFS. Because Linux cannot recognize NTFS format.

Step 2: Install Windows XP.
Put master jumper back and let 200 GB disk 0 to be master. And when necessary change BIOS setting for hard disk boot sequence too to let master drive be first priority. Install Windows XP onto disk 0. Change XP c:\boot.ini file like the one below,

[boot loader]
timeout=5
Default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\WINNT="Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional"

Restart machine, right now you can see the XP boot loader for you to select either XP or 2000 to boot up. If it does not work, check boot.ini file to see if the rdisk setting or partition setting right or not.
When everything is fine, go next step.
