Do you have any further help as to how I would achieve that? I am new to cy=
gwin and *Nix, so any basic help is appreciated. How to I set it up that al=
l text file will have DOS line endings?

Not possible.=A0 The bin/textmode option in setup has been removed because
setup doesn't create the fstab file.=A0 It's done using a script.=A0 If you
want to use textmode mounts, add them to the fstab file after
installation using an editor.
