Windows XP Beta w/ Win 2k?

Hi all,
I'm a beta tester for Windows XP but I haven't installed it yet...I don't feel like having all those bugs in my software (don't ask me why I signed up...)...anyway I'm thinking about making a dual-boot with XP and 2k...can I do this without losing all my info on Win2k and if I can how would I go about doing this?
TIA!
 
Thanx for the help, but I have two questions:
1. Do you know of any free partition-maker that will allow me to partition with losing the data? I know of Partition Magic, but that isn't free...
2. Since I would be making a partition, there'd be two HDs, C: and D:, when there are really only two, right? So I'd put Win2k on the C: partition and WinXP on D:, but how would I be able to boot on the D: partition?

Thanx in advance!
 
I think win2K has a partition utility that will create one for ya.. And if you install XP on a machine that already has an OS a windows bootloader will be instaled.. It does everything for ya.
