I'm about to install DOS 6.22 on a PC that has NT workstation 4.0. Is there anything I should be careful about?

If the C: partition is NTFS you can't do it. If it is FAT16 you can do it but you will destroy the NT boot sector. If you install DOS, that's all you'll boot into.
However, when you've finished, boot off the NT three floppy disk set and select Repair Boot Sector - ONLY! This will reinstall the NT boot sector and also give you a selection at startup to run DOS.
