Creating Windows NT 4.0 Boot Diskettes
The Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 CD is bootable.
However, there may be instances where creating
boot diskettes is desirable.
The following steps outline the boot diskettes creation process using
the Setup program included with the Windows NT Server 4.0 CD:
1.
While the Windows NT 3.51 Server is live or active, place the Windows NT 4.0 CD into the
appropriate drive.
2.
Change to the drive letter of the CD-ROM. From the I386 directory, through the File
Manager RUN command, type
WINNT32 /OX
(not case sensitive), then press
ENTER
.
This command starts the boot diskette creation process.
The following is a screen shot
example which displays the I386 directory.
NOTE:
You must have three formatted high-density diskettes.
