I’ve got a machine to load NT4 and later Win2K once I feel I’ve got a handle on NT. I feel silly but I can’t seem to load it correctly. I’m using a Win98 boot disk so I can obtain CDROM support. I ran the winnt.exe in the I386 folder and everything seemed to go OK. I go through creating 3 disks. After hardware detection I get an error – which I forgot to write down. I think it pertained to partioning. Anyway, I eject the disks, reboot, and it goes right back to my original Win98 desktop that I thought the NT4 setup process was supposed to take care of. I noticed the setup just loaded files in an NT folder in the root directory of the C: drive. I thought setup would partition to NTFS and then format as part of the setup. This should be an easy one for you.
