Here's what I'd do
Part 1: NTFS for W2K
Part 2: Blank space where NetBSD will go
Part 3: FAT-32 to store the binary sets
Part 4: whatever...
You don't need to create and then destroy/convert a FAT-32 partition just
to get a NetBSD partition.
Also, you can arrange the partitions in any order your heart desires.
FAT-32 can be read by both OS's, that's why the sets should go there.
This is how I did my install. Worked like a charm.
For more detailed instructions if you need, search the mailing list
archives for a posting I made about two months ago on this topic.
