Hi Jeff,
You don't need oodles of harddisk space. Install 5.2, get net working,
copy the resolv.conf to your dos directory. Install 6.1 over 5.2, copy the
old resolv.conf from the dos directory back.
What I ment was the essential lines were the same. Here it is. See if you
can copy it.
search localhost bgl.vsnl.net.in
nameserver 202.54.1.30
But, I may have changed some odd setting without knowing that might have
caused the net-connection to work. So I may be wrong, and results may
vary.
