In Windows NT 4.0, you could create a set of setup boot disks by running:
winnt /OX
or
winnt32 /OX
These do NOT work in Windows 2000.
If you run winnt32 /OX, you simply get Winnt32 help.
To create a set of Setup boot disks for Windows 2000:
1. Mount the Windows 2000 CD-ROM.
2. Start / Run.
3. Type:
bootdiskmakeboot A:
4. Press Enter.
NOTE: Setup boot disks are NOT needed if your computer BIOS supports booting from the CD-ROM.
NOTE: You can create the Setup boot disks from any operating system.
