BTW The general advice given here about making the partition below a
certain size is wrong (as I said). It is the size of the DISK (assuming
IDE, and assuming a typical BIOS).

Also, putting NT4 on a laptop is really painful (although in a virtual
machine it would probably be ok). NT4 just doesn't have the drivers.
