dd copied (hd0,2) to (hd0,3) to make system for the kids, then modified boot.ini in the copy to point to the right partition (details below).

When I boot (hd0,3) I get:

Invalid BOOT.INI file
Booting from C:\winnt\
NTDETECT failed

I suppose that NT Boot code has saved somewhere the position where NTLDR is. I mean it does not search it.

If I were you I will check this project to fix your hd0,3 wxp boot:

http://ms-sys.sourceforge.net/

(It is a tool for making something equivalent to fdisk /mbr or fixmbr or fixboot but you can specify the partition where to act.
