well, i did it via the long route and had NT installed on the box. i can dig up
my notes on this and post the exact process, but you should be able to switch
over to alphabios (for those machines that have the full ROM) and execute it
from there. don't remember off the top of my head right now if the 2100 has the
full ROM, but i know the 4100s do.

Cheers,
