This doesn't really fit into any other catergories... so I'll post it here.

Yesterday I installed windows 2000, got it working, then trying to install linux afterword and dual boot. Linux boots and runs fine (other than my own incompetence with getting the net connection to work), but the windows 2000 option for the dual boot does not work. It says NF something not found, then asks for a boot disk. Unfortunetely, I don't have a boot disk .

Is there a way to recover? Or am I gonna have to just format it all and do it over?

the W2K installer cd has a rescue option, just boot from it.
