technobard is on a distinguished road
The safest route is to use Partition Magic (or something similar). PM will move partitions, if necessary, to satisfy your different operating system requirements. Win2K wants to be on the primary partition (if I remember correctly). I haven't done Linux and Win2K Pro, but I have done Windows ME and Win2K Pro which, let me tell ya, sucks! Anyway, PM moved things around and everything worked fine.

As long as Win2K Pro is installed first, you will probably minimize your grief.
