Hello Jose,

partition on which you install nt4 cannot be greater than 4GB.
Create several partitions (min a 2nd one) to access all disk space.

Not entirely true. You can install NT on up to a 7.8GB partition if it has
previously been created. The NT installer can only create up to a 4GB
partition.

Hello Homer,

Thank you for your answer.
I heard of that other limit but until today was believing it was some
mistake
or applicable only to server release.
Could you tell me how you proceed with a fresh install?
Does one need to DOS-boot and run fdisk first or is there an easier
solution?

Hi Calvin,

Thank you for the link.
I gave a look at your site and read many articles it references.
Interesting stuff! Some I had nearly forgotten like the difference
between boot partition and system partition...
