Correct, but I would recommend not creating an NTFS partition until all is
working smoothly and you don't need to access through DOS.
For example, you have a C: drive as DOS and D: as NTFS. The D: drive crashes.
Well, you can't restore NT on NTFS without having NT running! If you kept it
DOS, you could boot off a floppy or whatever and restore from a DOS tape.
Ever try to boot NT off a floppy? :^)
