Having learned I can do it, I now need to know how. I've created a partition
for the 2nd Win2K:

Drive 1: Partition 1 = WME (FAT32); Partition 2 = W2K current copy (FAT32)
(dual boot)

Drive 2: Partition 1 = My Documents (FAT32); Partition2 = W2K proposed 2nd
copy NTFS).

Do I need any special software? How do I do it? Should I install the
Recovery Console (I'd rather not)? I'd like the boot dialogue to add the
third OS, i.e.

Windows 2000
Windows ME
Windows 2000 2nd copy
