I have a n old very basic computer I want to install Dos6.22 on, I do not have any usable floppy disk's.
I have a CD to install DOS from (I've done all the preparation etc.) It boots ok and goes through a couple of screens UNTILL it gets to one that says "format 2 floppies to make uninstall disks" It then says put disk one in "a" when ready and press any key to proceed.
I am now STUCK because I don't have any floppies that are usable and I don't really want any uninstall disks but there is no way past this screen untill you make the disks.
I did read somewhere that you can do a couple of key strokes to bypass the making of these disks (I can't find the article again)
Can anyone HELP PleaseMSDos never came on a CD....where is this CD from ? ?What difference does that make? There are loads of MSDos CD's & CD images available for free.
This is probably because floppy disks never were reliable, and most modern computers don't even have a floppy disk drive.
These CD images are the exact same MSDos6.22 but everything is in the same place.
Even if I had floppy disks that worked I would not want to create un-install disks.

I have four computers and none of them will read or write to any of the old floppy disks I had.

And yes they are not write protected.The difference it makes is that it's a copyright violation and our policy here is we do not assist wth warez. Quote from: Merv Wiz on November 10, 2010, 08:13:38 AM

How it got on a CD image I haven't the faintest, though.
