I want to make a 2.88M virtual boot floppy in an NTFS environment. How should it be configured?
Two cases required: A, all NTFS; B, not all NTFS.

There’s an article about it right in this section. I’ve only tried the 1.44M one, and it feels pretty good. I made my MS7.1 into a virtual boot disk, even though all my partitions are NTFS too.
LK’s article.
Virtual floppy, good stuff!
It can conveniently add a DOS boot option under Windows NT, 2k, xp, 2k3, and supports ntfs, fat32, fat16 partitions, making booting DOS simple and fast.
Features: Safe, it does not write code to the boot sector and will not damage the system, so there is no need to restore the mbr. Convenient, you can restart the system at any time and enter the DOS environment.

Thanks!
I made a 2.88M one myself based on Shen Jie’s all-Chinese Win98 boot disk, but if everything is NTFS, can %ramd% be set?
Also, every time after restoring the system from a backup, I have to rerun this once under Windows: vfloppy -1 vloader.bin -2 vmemdsk.bin -i dos.ima. Is there any way to run it under DOS (automatically after operating the ghost restore item)?
