See: http://www-3.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-48VPPW
then read this:
http://www-3.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=LWIK-3VJLL8 and
this: http://www-3.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=LWIK-3VKLST

But, FWIW, W2K was _made_ for the 600X systems and you'll ultimately be much
happier with it IMHO.

http://www-3.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-4GUQVB but all
that's really necessary is to BOOT from the W2K CD and run the install to the
bare HD. Then see here:
http://www-3.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=DSHY-3TLQ2L for any
updated drivers you might need.
