Ready to install OS and boot to HDD (secondary boot cdrom)...
Have MS 2000 CD in CDROM drive and this is what comes up... on drive C:...
1) .. Installing 2000
2) .. Not reading drive A...Abort,Retry,Fail?... Enter A...Win 98 startup disk could
not create a temporary drive for the diagnostic tools...
May be because computer has less than the minimum requirement extended memory...
Path not found...
:\Command.com...
:\Extract.exe...
:\Readme.txt...
Bad command or file name...
The diagnostic tools were sucessfully loaded to drive...
File not found...

Sounds like you have the 3 1/2" boot in place.
Remove it
Put the win2k cd in the rom and then reboot
win2k should load the install menu and then you can install it.
You may need to run your BIOS setup and set the boot order up to CDROM:,C:,A:
