Hey, John:

Any chance you'd be willing to share a dd image of that disk? Even if
you removed JAWS, it would still be helpful to see the configuration.
Sure -- , except that I'll have to recreate the FreeDOS version. When it
didn't work for installing Windows, I tried again with real MS-DOS. For some
reason I couldn't get that to work either but I don't remember why. I think
the version of MS-DOS I happen to have doesn't support FAT32 at all.
But I'm fairly sure I can recreate the FreeDOS version by simply making a
bootable FreeDOS diskette and then copying the files over. I believe that's
all I did to build the MS-DOS version from the FreeDOS version. I don't
have any time tonight but I'll get to it this weekend.
Oh, one catch... The complete jaws for DOS package doesn't fit on a
diskette. I deleted all the drivers except for those for an external
doubletalk. So it isn't going to talk for you unless you have a doubletalk.
