Nothing in mknbi-dos has changed from 0.5.2 to 0.5.3. However, you should be able to use it right as it is. At least I was able to boot the MS-DOS, which comes as the basis of Windows-95 (I think it's called MS-DOS version 7.0) without a problem, and I also got reports that it's possible to boot a full Windows-95 without any changes to mknbi-dos. Please note that the documents for which you have given the URL, describes a setup using a commercial bootrom, which is not compatible with netboot or etherboot. gero. -- I never forget a face, but in your case I'll make an exception. - Groucho Marx -- Gero Kuhlmann, Hannover 0511/6497525 (Voice) gero@gkminix.han.de
