Hi Paul
I know this isn't the answer your looking for but it would just be easier
to put linux on that laptop. To answer your question that you asked,
there should be a readme.txt on the disk that will explain the proceedure
to you. It is a little strange. It's been forever since I have played
with dos so I can't help to much but I can say that I remember the
documentation being helpful. There should be a few other .txt files on
that disks as well.
