Preparation :
First, design your DNS & AD namespace
Design your network topology, and in case you are using leased lines to connect to remote sites, prepare to set up IP subnets
Next, define security needs & assign delegation
Upgrade path :
take a BDC offline
Upgrade your PDC and emulate PDC on Win2K server
next, upgrade your BDC's
After upgrading all server, perform dcpromo to install AD on your first server
