Hi, I have a laptop with a floppy drive and no cd/rom drive.
I want to install win 95.
I have 95 on cd
Is there a way to transfer the system onto floppies?

Yes there is, but I can't help there. Others will jump on that I guess.
I use direct cable connection and Dos to copy the cd to the hard disk of
the
laptop.
Direct cable connection from lpt1 to lpt1 on the laptop and a dos boot
disk
that has the line "device= path intersvr.exe" in config.sys and
"intersvr.exe" in autoexec.bat for the laptop
Memory suggests this is wrong, if Win98 Fan was
talking about the InterLink/InterServ apps in DOS.v.6.
The CONFIG.SYS line loads a *.SYS file (not an EXE
file) and I think AUTOEXEC.BAT loads the EXE of
the complementary file. MS's DOS manual approx.
1990 had an important error or omission so there was
in the 1990s a public domain help article (written by
me) on how to use InterLink . . . that may still exist somewhere.
