server, you can install Windows NT on multiple computers by first
copying the Windows NT master source files to a shared drive on a
network server. After connecting your computer to a network, such
as with the DOS LAN requester, you can install the files from the
network server to your computer at the DOS command prompt.
For more information, refer to the Windows NT installation guide.
