I have an IBM PC2 (256k M/B) with 640k, dual floppy, no HD.
I get the same problem.  There is no partition table, because
there is no hard drive.  How hard is it to check the equipment
settings???  Not a very useful demo.  Sure didn't convince
me to shell out over a hundred hard-earned student dollars for
a hack-OS.
