For installation and configuration procedures that require you to boot from DOS,
you cannot successfully use the MS-DOS prompt from within Windows. Perform a
“clean” boot from DOS or use a DOS boot disk.
To make a DOS-bootable diskette:
1 Insert a blank, formatted diskette in drive A.
2 At the DOS prompt, enter:
sys a:
System files are copied to the diskette.
3 Remove the diskette from drive A and attach a label for future reference.
