Why won't Win2k install from DOS?

Try using the boot floppies (makeboot.exe or something of that sort), booting directly from the CD, or grabbing the boot floppies from bootdisk.com.

I always install w2k from dos.

- Boot from a dos floppy
- Enable smartdrv.exe (copy from your win98 directory to floppy)
- insert win2k cd or whatever hdd
- go into i386 and run winnt

 
When i boot from floppy then format and go to E:setup,it says cannot run from DOS,the 2000 Cd is recognised on E: and does have setup.exe in the DIR.What's going on here,it did install Win 98 SE in that procedure a little while ago, so i don't know.
 
Why not just enter the BIOS and change the boot sequence to boot from CDRom and install that way. No booting from dos needed.
