Can anyone help me find a way to boot from a DOS Boot disk that will in turn read the files on WIN NT 4.0(NTFS)Drive?

First, make a regular DOS boot disk...

Go to SysInternals site for NTFSDOS. Put the file on your boot floppy and just run the command NTFSDOS whenever youneed access to NTFS partitions.

log on to an NT server or workstation. Format a floppy disk WITHOUT bootable files.
copy onto the floppy disk the following files from NT
boot.ini
ntdetect.com
ntldr

That should do it.
