QUERY: coexist win2k & winxp together

I want to install Windows 2000 Advanced Server & Windows XP SP2 (steamlined)
onto my 120GB HD.

I know that if I install Win2k first, then WinXP 2nd, then WinXP bootloader
will take over (overtake) Win2k bootloader. If I install WinXP first, then
Win2k, then Win2k bootloader will take over (overtake) WinXP bootloader. Am
I right?

How can one have both Win2k and WinXP coexist on the same PC? Does Windows
automatically create a dual-boot loader menu? Or do I have to resort to
using LILO or GRUB?

.
