[plug] Windows Problems

[I am the LinuxAlien]

Ok, the first thing people are going to say is get rid of windows, 
unfortunately that isn't an option here. Whats even worse is what I had to 
do to my linux box.
I needed w2k on a box fast and it had to be a good box. It also had to be 
one of my boxes so my linux box was selected.
Here is the partioning before i started
MBR             lilo
hda1    8Mb     /boot
hda3    2Gb     /
hda5    1.8Gb   /home
hdb1    512Mb   /win    (win98)

It is now like this
MBR             W2k
hda1    8Mb     Windows 2000 boot
hda3    2Gb     /
hda5    1.8Gb   Windows 2000
hdb1    512Mb   /home

I started the install after moving my /home partion and testing that it 
worked. I then deleted the old home partion and created the windows 2000 
partion on hda5. It was then i was told it need the 8Mb boot partion as 
well. By this stage it had wrecked my MBR so I booted into Knoppix and 
moved ha1 /boot to hda3 /boot, (put it on the / filesystem)
Then I installed w2k
I now need to work out a way to dual boot it. I have done this before with 
W2k and Linux (Debian) but I installed w2k first. This wasn't an option 
this time.
I don't want to install Debian again.
Here are some thoughts i had
    * boot with a Knoppix CD and possibly install lilo from there
    * Use Windows boot loader
    * reinstall deb
Any suggestions that aren't "remove windows" would be appreciated, i would 
probably like lilo back as i know that it can boot w2k.
Thanks
Tim
