Smile Install Windows XP on dual boot system

I plan to install the Windows XP on my dual boot system(Win98 and W2K),
and i'll make a 2GB partition for it(enough?) my question is will the
Windows 2000 boot loader recognize the Windows XP and let it boot? Thanks for any reply...

When you install WinXP, it will replace the win2K boot loader. so don't worry. But make an Emergency repair disk in Win2K to restore you pc as it was if you want to remove winXP
