A program such as Fdisk, which lets you format the hard disk in NTFS? [fdisk] [window xp]

Q: Is there a software like or something I can on a floppy disk or CD, so I can boot and format my hard drive in NTFS (not FAT 32 or 16)? Because I know windows XP CD will do, but it takes too long to boot, so I wannt something similar to that. Anyone knows? thx.

I want something that can delete a partitian, then create partitian and format in NTFS.

Why do you need to do this? If your backingup/restoring just let Ghost know the target is NTFS and it will format/write the files on the fly. If you just have one empty drive you need to format, just boot and let the OS do it (it's gonna need to write a signature to the disk anyhow)

mkntfs (http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/man/mkntfs.html)? (edit: stupid me)

Re:Do you want to wipe our all the data on your hard drive or do you want to just convert it to ntfs?

Re:XP boot disks (basically same as the XP installatin CD) or if you have a copy of Partition Magic, you can use the rescue disk.
