You can defeat the auto-config feature of setup 2.1 by using the "-n" switch on the command line. This will make setup act more like the 2.03 versions which ask you questions about all your hardware. You can therefore run setup on a machine other than the one you actually intend to use. >Maybe we can just change the WIN.INI file. > Sorry, but it's not that simple. Setup acts something like a linker, pulling in gdi.exe, kernel.exe, user.exe, and a lot of drivers, fonts, etc to make the following binaries: win.com, win200.bin, win200.ovl, winoldap.mod, winoldap.grb If you run setup -n on a regular PC with hard disk, you should then be able to xcopy the entire directory onto your bournoulli. Don't forget the PIF subdirectory.... Todd Stewart Metheus Corporation
