I am unable to install dr-dos on my machine. The computer has an 84mb =
hd, a floppy, and 32mb of ram. When the system boots it begins to =
install copying files from a: to c:. Then a  command a:pnunpack =
c:setup2.ex_ is executed and always fails with the message: error =
setup.exe bad-this is followed by the same unpack command for setup.hl_ =
which is successful-I can manually unpack setup2.ex_ by setting the =
directory to c: then issueing a:pnunpack a:setup2.ex_ or in c: issueing =
pnunpack a:setup2.ex_. Any help on how to install dr-dos and setup the =
boot file on disk c: would be greatly appreciated.
