By "bootmenu" I refer to the menu you get before Windows 95 starts.
In msdos.sys, you said that you have the option: BootMenu=1
This cause Windows 95 to display a menu for 30 seconds before continuing
to load.

That menu has options such as:
"Normal boot"
"Safe mode"
"Command prompt only"
And others options.

In the button of the screen, there is a small line
with help for special commands.

Just go to "command prompt only" and press enter. This will put you
in DOS without loading windows.
