    I was attempting to follow this tutorial, looks like they used an XP image by formating a floppy and selecting "create and MS-DOS startup disk" so are you saying it cannot be done?

    I am saying that you must make your own startup disk and add the 3rd party driver that will enable dos to read ntfs partitions. DOS cannot read ntfs w/out such a driver.
