> Mal, N7MAL, mentioned to me a much easier way to create a bootable
> DOS CD.  If you have Roxio Easy CD Creator (which I have pre-installed)
> on my Dell laptop computer (I have Version 5), you can start Easy CD
> Creator,  go to File->New CD Project->bootable CD, and you get
> a requestor for a file or floppy disk drive.

> If you don't have Roxio, you can download free tools from the Web
