|    Install with overlay    |

      From: TooMuchSpam@hotmail.com               Hi there,        I have an old 486dx2-33 with 4M RAM that I am trying to get Win95 onto. I've       got a 2G hard drive in it, have managed to get Linux down and using the whole       drive, want to try and get Win95 down now.        I've got a 2.5" to 3.5" converter for installing the OS through a desktop       box, as the laptop doesn't have a CD. Install goes well, I stick the drive back       into the laptop and boot with MaxBlastPLus 1.24 (Version 3 won't boot) from the       floppy, but it wants to format the drive. If I do that, I don't believe I can       install the OS back in the desktop (finds a compressed filesystem or some such       error).        Any suggestions as to how I can go about getting Win95 happening with the       overlay software? It won't boot without it.              --       Solar-powered Linux: Slackware9.1 2.4.26 IBM ThinkPad560       1993 BRC Banzai w/60T Real Chainring & Shimano Deore XT              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
