I'm waiting for parts to arrive for a new system. I can probably get a copy
of MSDOG, but I'd like to avoid this. Eventually it will perhaps be
necessary to install Windows 95 or Windows NT and MSDOG, but to begin with,
I will install Linux.
I expect to be able to create the installation disks for Debian on my
long faithful machine electra. Can I reasonably expect to pull this off
without installing DOS at all? Can I format the disks from the install
disks? Can I partition them, all that?
Another question, out of curiosity: will it be feasible to install Windows95
later on? Will it stomp on the linux system? What about DOG---can I
reasonably expect to install that AFTER linux, without a problem?
Better still, can I run DOSEMU without having MSDOG installed ever at all?
I have a few programs like skyglobe and another astronomy sky disply
program, HYPERSKY, that I would like to run, as well as several other
programs. I guess I would really need Windows 3.1 to run that on DOSEMU?
Thanks in advance,
Alan
