upgrading o/s in dual-boot config

okay, i know how to set-up dual-booting systems. all machines in my lab have booted various win9x with either nt, win2k or xp pro, but i now want to dual-boot the family computer.

i presently boots to win98se and i want to dual-boot with win2k to help with my study for 210. my problem is that i want to upgrade win98se to xp pro. if i install win2k as a second o/s, will i be able to upgrade win98se at a later date to xp, or should i wipe the drive, install win2k and then xp pro?

(i have apps and data that i would much rather not have to backup/reinstall)

I recommend clean installation.

First W2K, then Win XP.
