Hey List!
I have this nice newer hardrive that I installed storm 2000 linux on.
I have two DOS partitions on the front end of the drive (C and D). I
would like to install my old win95 on the C partition but am having
some "issues".
The driver for my cdrom doesn't seem to "take". (I'm awaiting a
reply from the manufacturer about that.) It says installation
complete and lets me know the files that were changed
(COMMAND.COM and AUTOEXEC.BAT I believe) but there is no
drive assigned my cdrom drive. Hence, I cannot get it to work in
DOS.
Is there a way I can get this win95 cdrom to get going in linux
(probably not, I suppose) or can I somehow copy it to one of the
dos partitions and then install it from there to the other dos
partition?
I did this once before by copying (from windows) win98 to 8 zip
drives, copied them to my D partition (using dos' XCOPY32) and
then installed it to my C partition without any problems.
I tried using (from a terminal as root) cp /dev/cdrom /dev/hda1 and
it seemed to be doing the trick but then it stopped and I got some
sort of I/O error. (And then dos said that partition was now
unreadable so I went and reformatted it as a dos partition and then
dos was happy.)
What to do? :) Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
