First, note that Dwarf DOS and MAXDOS are both pure DOS.
1. It is recommended to use grub4dos (grub for dos)
2. Install DOS first and then install XP... (Directly using bootsect.dos may not be able to boot DOS)
Please make good use of the search function...

Extract to the boot floppy! Then type XPDOS at boot time!

Is this okay? I saw an article online saying that running start/separate in the XP command prompt can enter pure DOS. I don't know if it works?

Hello moderator:
I followed your method ("Extract to the boot floppy! Then type XPDOS at boot time!") and did it. But after using it, the system can't boot either. Maybe my C: drive is in NTFS format. What should I do now?

Use the following commands:
Sys
srcboot
bootpart
attrib
Specific steps are:
1. Boot Dos with a CD or floppy disk;
2. Sys a: c: (Transfer DOS boot files so that the existing C: drive can boot DOS);
3. Srcboot c: c:\bootsect.dos /s (Save the current DOS boot information);
4. Echo y|Bootpart winnt boot:c: (This step is to re - restore the Nt boot kernel because you used Sys a: c: to overwrite the original Nt boot information on the C: drive. If this step is not carried out, booting from the hard disk will become pure DOS);
5. Attrib -h -s -r C:\boot.ini (This step is to remove the hidden, system, and read - only attributes of Boot.ini);
6. Echo c:\="MS-DOS">>c:\boot.ini (Add an option to enter DOS in Boot.ini);
7. Attrib +h +s +r C:\boot.ini (Restore the hidden, system, and read - only attributes of Boot.ini);
8. Restart the computer, press F8, select the last item "Return to the operating system selection menu", and select the "Ms-dos" item to be able to enter pure DOS.
