--part1_72.ddfbaac.289fc36e_boundary Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I want to thank everyone for answering my questions and responding so quickly. I've gone carefully through the install procedures using the kern.flp and mfsroot.flp disks and it is clear that Windows 98 takes the entire disk. It left a mere 2 Meg for the install! ha. It was difficult to determine because instead of showing disk space in Mb, it showed it in "ST" and I had to cycle through the different units to get info I could interpret easily. I looked at the FIPS program info after I downloaded it, but it looks like a nightmare, full of places to go wrong and destroy my comp. All in all, i've decided the best thing to do would be to buy a new disk and install directly to it, leaving my windows disk completely alone. Thanks again.
