Does anyone know of a command line switch I can use to copy the Windows 98 installation files from the retail CD to the hard disk to speed up the installation?

I've tried using various command lines from the boot disk to practice copying the files with no luck.

Hi Chris,

The link below shows how I perform that task.

COPY WIN98 TO HARD DRIVE

Mesich, I could not have said it better myself.

go to the hard-drive
create a directory called something like wininst
Go to the cdrom drive and go into the Win98 directory finally type copy *.* C:\wininst or what ever you called the directory.
Finally type something like C:\wininst\setup and you will then install it from the hard-drive to the drive

Thanks Bryco!

Take Care All,

Thank you! I was looking for instructions on how to do this too... :)
