>Description:
1. tools\fbsdboot.exe onm the 3.1 CD is broken. 
   It reports "Invalid Format" when called 
   fbsdboot.exe -D \kernel
2. install.bat on 3.1 cd is broken. It assumes
   fbsdboot.exe in its path or in the current (root)
   directory of the cd. This is not the case.
3. if all that is not a bug but a feature, someone
   should remove install.bat and update install.txt 
   accordingly.
>How-To-Repeat:
Boot DOS with cdrom stuff, without himem.sys.
Insert 3.1 CDROM 1. Change to cdrom drive.
D:>install
no such command or filename (or whatever the error message is in English language DOS)
D:>tools\fbsdboot -D kernel
Invalid Format!
