You might try Grub. It's in the ports and is pretty easy to use. I have a page on using it that might be of use (sheesh, this sounds like spam, but I don't get any money for people viewing my pages) although it's more oriented towards Linux. Still, there's a section on FreeBSD, and it might be useful. http://home.nyc.rr.com/computertaijutsu/grub.html I'm assuming that when you boot with with the Win2k bootloader, that is probably in the MBR that it gives you the choice of NT or 2K. Grub would pick the MS bootloader in the MBR, and once you were there, you'd be able to choose between NT4.0 and 2K.
