Boot under MS-Dos (this can be a copy of MS-Dos 6.22 on your hard disk, on a MS-Dos bootable floppy, or the "MS-Dos 7.0" included in Windows 95 (you can obtain it by pressing Shift+F5 when Win95 loads).

 Boot Linux from a FireWire device
Boot loaders are usually installed in the MBR of the first hard disk in the machine.
In order to use the one-phase boot, we need to build a kernel that has all the drivers needed to mount the root file system built in (any other drivers can be built at modules that can be loaded from the root partition during normal initialization).
You should now be able to boot using the floppy: it will load the kernel from the floppy, load the initrd image into RAM, wait for the root device to be recognized, and then continue to boot as normal from there.

 Dual-Booting Windows NT and DOS/Win95 When C: Is NTFS
The option to boot into DOS is automatically added if the NT installation program finds a DOS boot sector in place on C:.

DOS must be installed on a primary partition (not a logical partition within an extended partition) on the same hard drive as the NTFS boot partition (what the BIOS sees as Drive 0).
