The installation files are on the primary hdd which is running win95. When i get to the installation section where i have to choose installation medium i choose dos partition and it scans for /dev/wd0 and installs from thier. When it has pulled about 3/69 files from the bin dir i get an error saying "Write Failure on transfer (wrote -1 bytes of 1024 bytes)" the same things happen with the Dict, Doc and Manpages dir's. any suggestions????? thanks
