How to create bootable DOS USB stick which sees NTFS drives ?
I've found ntfs4dos.exe by Mark Russinovich, but I don't know how to use it with dos. Also I've found many ways to create DOS bootable USB sticks, but many of them simply aren't working. So, my question consists of 2 parts:
1)Create bootable and WORKING DOS USB stick,
2)How to make it, to enable NTFS drives and work with them.
i believe free version of WinISO can edit bootable CD images, so you can add tools like NTFS readers to DOS or WinPE LiveCDs of choice. Not to LiveDVDs though. Why it can be needed - for example because SiliconImage/Adaptec HostRAID cards only have 16-bit DOS-based firmware flashers, that you can not run from other OSes – Arioch 'The – 2018-08-03T10:36:07.123
Have you looked at FreeDOS? http://www.freedos.org/ - I'm moderately sure it has an NTFS filesystem driver.
