johnrrambo@wp.pl is on a distinguished road

Default Helped a lot. thx


Just one thing. Instead of ide converter u can use usb interface and laptop computer, but your laptop has to have possibility to boot from usb disk.

Of course like there is in article, DOS is not the smartest one, so it will not install under usb drive but what i did is the following:

boot from win98 and start computer with cd
format this disk with a command format [letter]: /s /q (where letter is a drive letter)

later on i moved files to this partiotion like
smartdrv.exe
himem.sys
emm386.exe

end created config.sys:
device=himem.sys
device=emm386.exe noems
dos=high,umb
files=30
buffers=30


then just copy i386 and move prepared disk to other laprtop

Anyway many thanks...
