times we shared with loved ones, both humorous and sad. Here we can take pleasure in reminiscing about the good ol' days. Whether it's an old commercial or a book from your past, it belongs in /r/nostalgia. Nostalgia is often triggered by something reminding you of a happier time.

After that boot from HDD in laptop in MS DOS mode and reinstall.Be polite, respect each other and have fun! Then dd using knoppix the first 3GB from VM onto the HDD passed to virtual machine via USB. You could also install it in a VM on about 3GB partition, then coppy entire CD into VM. Just last week I installed 98 in a VM (was trying to make some old game work). If this doesn't work, I'd go with installing DOS and copying setup files. I would just capture and copy bootsector from 98 CDROM and contents on FAT32 drive. Then copy contents of CDROM and start setup on laptop. You may need drivers for USB, easier would be to just hook it to some old machine physically.Īfter that you need following to boot DOS:ĬONFIG.SYS (maybe you will need high memory to start Installer) You also need to pass the USB connected FAT32 formated laptop drive.Īnother way is to make 98 VM and pass it USB floppy drive and format it with /s option from command prompt.

Also, the content of the Windows 98 and Windows Me startup disk is different from the Windows 95 disk, in that some of the more common hardware diagnostic tools, such as ScanDisk and Format, are in a file called Ebd.cab and must be extracted in order to use them. You can do this by booting VM off knoppix and passing it virtual floppy (Virtual floppy drive, freeware, works in 32-bit NT based Windows (XP and 32-bit 7) on your real machine, USB floppy drive or something like HP USB key (thumbdrive that gets detected as USB floppy and some BIOSes can boot from it). The Windows 98 and Windows Me startup disks are different from the Windows 95 disk, in that they will automatically load your CD-ROM drivers if you have a commonly supported CD-ROM. One way is to copy bootsector from CD-ROM or MS DOS startup disk that WinXP and latter can make you can boot machine by knoppix and dd bootsector from floppy to USB disk.
