multiple SQL Servers on one server

I need to have a second instance of SQL Server 2000 put on a server and I'm
wondering if there is anything I need to do to the existing instance of SQL
Server so it will work fine with the second installation? Thanks.You may want to limit the amount of memory used by the first instance. =
Other than that, nothing really comes to mind.

or can you simply get by with additional db's. You may very well need a new
instance, but... I've seen a number of customers use new instances in cases
when multiple db's on the same server might have been well suited.
If you have security or mgmt reasons for splitting the instances then of
course it's probably a good idea...
