Subject: Dod702b2 - installation hangs
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Precedence: bulk

I downloaded Beta2/Dod702.exe last week (file date 97/11/17 ?).
When I tried to install this morning, all went smooth - up to
copying STACHIGH - then setup hung and I could do nothing but
reboot.

I have booted OpenDOS 7.02b2 from floppy #1, since running setup
booted to my current^H^H^H^H^Hold Novell DOS made setup crash
rather quickly with a 'divide error'.

The download should have been OK, since Dod702.exe unpacked the 
floppy images without errors. To verify the floppies are OK, I
wanted to repeat everything from the download, but found that the
files are now dated 97/11/24. Can someone tell me what's new?

My system:
AMD5x86/133 (sometimes /160) - EXP4045 VLB MB - SST2946 VLB Controller
40MB RAM - WD 720 MB drives C/D/E - Conner CFS420A drive F - 
4speed CDROM - SB32AWE - Yamaha SW60XG - ESCOM handy scanner
NovellDOS 7.0 patch 15/2 - Win3.1 + patch 3.11 - 
CONFIG.SYS/AUTOEXEC with lots of configurations, too much to tell here.
(should not matter anyway since I booted from install floppy #1)

BTW: hopefully Dod702 will stop Creative's AWEUTIL TSR from crashing
     my system in DOS mode, anyone tried already ?
