XP network install - help!!!!

[Keith]

I am trying to do a Windows XP network. On pc with a blank hard drive, I
boot with a network boot disk, connect to the network share that has
winnt.exe and when I execute it, I get, "windows XP requires a hard drive
volume with at least 383 Megapytes of free disk space.... setup was unable
to locate a drive with this space" I am stumped. Any suggestions?

You must create a DOS formatted partition first.
In the first installation step, XP copy all fles from the network drive
to the local harddrive. After that he reboot and starts the installation
process.
