Used 6 disks to start Windows XP pro installation. Chose to repartition
drive c: to 26000mb and reformat it. When that was done drive c: was now
the small FAT drive and drive d: my new one. Chose to install Windows XP on
drive d: - had no options to change drive names, etc. Went well until first
restart. Now I'm stuck in a loop - NTLDR missing.
