The only version able to install it is IMHO DOS 7.10 which comes with
win98. (and the DOS which came with win95 b and winme [which is not
accessible by default])

IMHO there has been a LFN extension for DrDOS (which promised to also
support FAT32), but IMHO it died with DrDOS ... I hope that they release
the sourcecode, but sadly IMHO this will not happen)

If you use FAT16 than it should be accessable from any DOS.

Don't you think it's unfair to access a alien format with DOS dir ?? ;)
