Default MS Dos Boot Disc
Great ! The MS-Dos disc gets you to a command prompt ...
but then what ?
I can add fdisk to the floppy that's a nice addition.
What about cd-rom support, attrib, configs etc.
What files do I need to add to the floppy to make it act like a win98 boot disc? ( which I must tell you is an invaluable tool to keep around!!!)
Any feedback on this would be appreciated ..thanks in advance.

When you say MS dos boot disk do you mean just that or the floppy boot disks for XP? I have the file to make the XP ones but have not done it yet.

THe disc that gives cd-rom support etc. The post above my previous was good ...I just don't see why MS just didn't give XP the ability to make outright.
