Hi, I read that the documentation will be made available in some form that
I've never heard of and wonder if it can also be made available in an
independantly viewable form such as "dostext"?  Dosbook is really not
adaquate when stacked up against a dos viewer with more powerfull
functions and which is more friendly so it is not an alternative to the
documentation platform availability.

I'd like info for instance on what happens if you put disk 1 into the
drive and turn on the machine?  I need this info since my pc will not talk
at that point.  I've tried making it talk modifying config.sys and
autoexec.bat, but no go.  So, an installation guide would be helpfull.
I'll try reading dosbook, but I'm not sure I'll find what I'm looking for.
Any possitive feedback would be helpfull.
is there a way to install dosbook without installing the whole package?
I'd like to read it before I trash my machine again.
