Hmmm, I like Alan's advice. I would recommend checking this out. You don't need to get a bootable CD ROM out of the process, because you can create a bootable floppy from the image files, and DOS & Windows imaging tools, provided on the first installation CD ROM. If you go this route, Michael, get the three installation CD ROM images and the documentation disk. You can get by without the source for now, and possibly forever.
