The problem is that W2K boot-loader won't be able to see any file on a Linux partition (unless you had formatted it in VFAT which itself would be a very bad idea). Why don't you just put the file bootsect.lnx on C:\? Or, probably, I am missing something: what is your present booting situation right now? Regards, Maxim.
