Hi,

That's true, DOS was already installed but also programs were a lot
easier to install or remove, not files scattered in multiple directories.

Anyway, back to my learning curve, mostly down hill i'm afraid.

I now get-

Warning: Unable to open an initial console.
Kernal panic: No init found. Try passing init= option to Kernal

At that point the PC is locked up.

I wish the box would boot from the CD and I'd just boot up one of several
CD bootable Linux distros I have, oh well I'll eventually get it and
hopefully learn in the process!

Thanks,

Jerry
