Hello, I'm struggling on how I could install Windows 95 or 98 (whatever of the two) on the "D" partition of the hardisk instead of "C".
I try to explain better: I installed MS-DOS 6.22 on that hardisk and it currently is inside the "C" partition, I also installed Windows 3.11 and when I do the "win" command it starts Windows 3.11 (logically), when I boot Windows 95/98 installation, it automatically picks the C drive instead of the second "D" partition even if I set it as primary (but I can't from fdisk: I get this error: "Unable to read hard drive" when I try to run fdisk from DOS).
The dual boot won't be a big problem, I can install OS/2's boot manager from my OS/2 Warp 4 disk.
First of all, I need to figure out how I can format "D" since fdisk isn't working and then we must figure out how to install Windows 95 or 98 in "D" and don't make conflicts when I use the "win" command in DOS to run 3.11.
Currently assembled vintage computers I own: 11
Most important ones:
A "modded" Olivetti M4 434 S (currently broken).
An Epson El Plus 386DX running MS-DOS 6.22 (currently broken).
