Hi,
The following page might help your co-worker:
http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/mini/Linux+NT-Loader.html
It seems that boots.ini is a hidden file, so you have to
un-hidden it. Also, you have to copy some boot section of
Linux into NT part. This document is written for WinNT.
I hope that this works for Win2K as well.
HTH,
