Create Windows 2000 set-up disks

The Windows 2000 set-up disks can be created from the Windows 2000 (workstation or server) cd. These disks can then be used to set-up Windows 2000 on a workstation (or server).

The steps required are:

1. Start-up an operating system (dos, wfw, windows 9x or NT)
2. Insert the W2K installation CD
3. Start a command session (command.com or cmd.exe if NT)
4. Move to the BOOTDISK folder on the CD:

cd <CD>:\BOOTDISK

5. Run the command:

makeboot

6. You will be asked to insert 4 blank pre-formatted disks

These notes have been tested with Windows 2000.
