You may have a problem of size. How big are those primaries?

installing Warp on sec prim, install Win2K and then reinstal Warp again...

no

not set it installable in fdisk.  This one is for now end point.

"Set installable" is ONLY valid DURING installation, NEVER before.

with Partition Magic, because Warp always complain about corrupt partition
whatever.  DFSee might be also usefull, but I wasn't ever used this ?

DFSee is a major problem solver, with great support for those who need
it and have paid for it. Its support forum is a great place for solving
problems like you are having now. I rarely use anything else, and do a
lot of multiboot installations.

Don't forget, W2K until you install any service pack will corrupt IBM BM
unless you protect it. DFSee makes the required protection easy to
apply. You probably will need to apply "IBM Extended X Partition
Support" as well, but it is no longer available on the IBM web site.
Possibly it's still available via IBM FTP.

W2K multiboot installation gives me no problems. Try reading these:
