Hi all,

Tx Doofus :)

*** New Version ***

Here is a 5in1 boot floppy maker.
It makes a Dos 5.00,6.22,Win95A,Win95B and Win98SE boot floppy.

It makes a ram drive @ W: and the cdroms @ X:,Y:
It should work with most IDE & SCSI cdroms.
Also has a mouse driver and some selected dos goodies.

The goodies are:
DOS Controller
AEFDISK v1.7
LFNDOS v1.06
NTFS File System Driver for DOS V3.02R
Partition Resizer
Ranish Partition Manager
Proview
Drive Rescue V 1.0 Beta

All u need is 2 1.44 MB floppys any old test pc it
does not have to have a HD in it.

Goto the work folder.

Look for the XN1BMF.exe OR IMA FILE.

I have decided to put together a program manager for you using Moo so the disks will boot to it, instead of DOS Commander. This will be mouse or keyboard driven and will list all of the tools and the file manager for easy access. With that insane amount of free space you still have, may as well.

Well, here is the program manager. Now, some of the tools require switches to perform various tasks, so I'll leave it to you to modify the menu as you see fit. You can add additional Menus and items very easily. To get started use Edit/Modify Menu Items and File\New Menu for, well, what it says. Here is one of your Win '98 disks setup with MOO as a Disk Image and, of course, the manditory Screen Shot. This should keep you out of mischief for awhile. ;-)

Too late I started a cd based version of this. It shall include the the dos 5-98S with install to hd. Or build floppy install
disks.

I do this to learn more and maybe help somone at the same time.

Once again thanks Doofus.

I have now removed the two files I linked to above from the server as they are no longer needed.
