False.  It must be a 386+ with a 32-bit DPMI available.  You can package
CWSDPMI (much like GO32) to make sure a 32-bit dpmi is available.

Almost true.  If CWSDPMI is in the same directory or path, the DJGPP
image will automatically load it.

>   (3) He must have created certain directories, and if so which?

False.  No special directories needed.

>   (4) He must have set certain `SET xxx = yyyyy' global variables, and if so

False.  No environment variables are needed.
