How do I make a winXP boot disk so that I can access my
c:\ drive from the dos prompt? My current winXP boot disk
brings me to an a:\ prompt, but when I type in c:, I get
and invalid drive specification. I know the problem lies
with FAT vs NTFS. Isn't there an easy way to make up a
boot disk that will recognize the NTFS structure? Or, did
I do something wrong when I produced my bootable disk?
