Ok, I have Dos 6.22 on Floppy Disks.

When I tried to Install it to My Ram Drive, It tries to
Repartition and Format My C Drive. There seems
to be no other option to choose where to Install in to.

The System's I Have are either Windows 98 Or Windows Xp.
But they have Two Hard drive Each, With many Partitons on Them.

Question: So, What I want to know, is there anyway I can trick Dos 6.22
To Install itself On to my ram drive? Cause I really don't want to Repartition
and format one of my 20Gig Partition Just to Install Dos6.22 on it Temporally.


The Why Section:
Right now I have a Boot CD That Runs Windows 3.1 In A Ram Drive.
That was easy to make. All I did was First Make A Dos6.22 Boot Disk
that creates A Ram Drive, then Install Windows Into My ram Drive,
Which is Letter R:, Then Quit to the Dos Prompt and run Xcopy
On the R:\Windows Directory, coping everything to A Windows Folder
On one Of my Partitions. Then rebooted the Pc Back into Windows 98
and Zipped Up the Folder Containing the Windows 3.1 Files. Then Made
A Boot disk that booted Dos 6.22 and Made a Ramdrive Of about 50MB,
Then Unzipped Windows 3.1 Into the Ram Drive and runs it from there.
That Works, No Problems.
>>That Is the Short Verison<<

Now what I would like to do is Make the CD A Bit more authentic, By adding
Full Dos 6.22 to it, with an Assortment Of Old Windows 3.1 Programs.

Yea,yea, I know. why!! Answer: I'm Board.


Thanks In advance for any help.

Well, just to let you know I Fixed the problem.

Since Dos does not have to be Installed to work,
I used an Old PC With a Blank Hard Drive,
I took the Install disks and installed dos on that Pc.
Then I copied the files From that PC To one of my
Partittions on My other PC. Then Just Zipped Everything Up,
and Put it on the CD.
Everything works good.

Next Task Run Windows 98 From a Ram Drive.
That Looks to be Some what Harder. From what I
have read.
