Default Is it possible to add a menuitem to boot.ini to boot from a floppy disk?

I've searched MS help using keywords "boot.ini AND flopply", and got 85
related topics, but found no answer, for most of them are talking about boot
from hard disks.

While GRUB can boot from a floppy disk by specifying rootnoverify (fd0), I
think ntldr can do the same thing, is it possible?

Thanks.

The usual method is to insert a floppy disk
when wanting to boot from a floppy.
