Default WinXP dual boot with w2k server

I would like to install w2k server on my WinXP installed system.
I come up with a procedure by gooling and I need some confirmation to
prevent disaster.
Please comment it if I am wrong.
1> backup the NTDETECT.COM and NTLDR (WinXP version) from c:\ to floppy.
2> install W2K server to a D: drive which is NTFS. (created in advance)
3> boot from W2K server
4> overwrite the (W2K version) NTDETECT.COM and NTLDR by the backuped
NTDETECT.COM and NTLDR(WinXP version)
5> modify the boot.ini, append the entry for WinXP.
6> reboot -> then we can have a menu for selecting W2K server or WinXP

Does the above procedure correct?
Thanks a lot
