Boot.ini File

[Mark]

I need to know how to either copy or create a boot.ini
file so that I can make a boot disk. I have the NTLDR and
the NTDETECT.COM on a floppy, but I don't know where the
boot.ini is.

There is no point in trying to make a single floppy with the XP boot -
if you *must* boot a set of floppies that way, get the set at=20

(six floppies)

Neither way can you then boot a floppy and proceed to do something and
then go on into windows.

But you should not normally be booting that way even for repair - the
XP CD is bootable and you sue that
