Yes that surely works. What I was worried about was using Win2K and WinXP on the same box, but some RnD shows that they too can coexist. The order that you mentioned is correct. But you need to be sure of one thing, WinNT, win2K and win XP need to be on *different* partitions. This is because they all have a common set of system files and if put on the same paritition may wipe out the other. Go ahead try it out.
