For grub, add the following lines to /boot/grub/grub.conf:

title Microsoft Windows 2000
	rootnoverify (hd0,0)
        chainloader +1

(hd0,0) = 1st partition of the first detected disk drive.
(hd0,1) = 2nd partition of the first detected disk drive.
(hd0,2) = 3rd partition of the first detected disk drive.
(hd1,0) = 1st partition of the second detected disk drive.
(hd1,1) = 2nd partition of the second detected disk drive.
(hd1,2) = 3rd partition of the second detected disk drive.
(hd2,0) = 1st partition of the third detected disk drive.
(hd2,1) = 2nd partition of the third detected disk drive.
(hd2,2) = 3rd partition of the third detected disk drive.
...

The device numbering above applies to ATA, SCSI and possibly other
boot-able drive types as well.

Sincerely,
