When you issue the convert driveltr: /FS:NTFS command, at the next
boot, the FAT partition specified will be converted to NTFS. NT knows to perform
the action by checking the BootExecute key at boot time. The key's normal
contents, autocheck autochk * is replaced by autoconv
\DosDevices\driveltr: /FS:NTFS. To stop the conversion, set the key
to its normal string value.
