Yep. Piece of cake :
~~~~~~ /boot/grub/menu.lst
##########
title Debian GNU/Linux (2.4.18-custom.2 , 1280x1024x24)

kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-custom.2 root=/dev/hda4 read-only video=vesa vga=0x31B

In my case, /boot is the first partition on the primary master (where
debian will start from). Win2k is on the second partition of the
primary master. Debian is on the 4th partition, and swap is the 5th
partition (3 is an extended partition which is where 5 comes from).
This machine only has 1 disk. If you have a different disk/partition
scheme, just substitute the proper paths and it will work just fine.
