Nope...works like installing Windows.  Disk1 is bootable and AUTOEXEC runs setup 
routine which walks you through FDISK and FORMAT options to prep the hard disk, 
and calls EXPAND itself to extract files, prompts you to swap floppies, etc.

Shouldn't be a biggie if you have a working 6.22 setup on which to create the 
bootable Disk1.  However, also like Windows, there are upgrade and full 
versions.  It it's an upgrade, it will insist on finding a prior version 
(probably 6.2) to upgrade.
