Thanks to everyone who answered my query about installing Windows/286 2.1 on a Bernoulli Box. (For those who came in late, the problem was that the INSTALL program refused to recognize the Bernoulli as a hard disk). Several people said that the idea of installing on a different machine, then copying the files, would work. One correspondent had done exactly that, with success. The key is not accepting certain of the defaults when Windows INSTALL asks you. We were all set to try this Friday when Microsoft called back and said they have an updated version of 2.1 that works on the Bernoulli, and has some other fixes besides (no details, sorry). They will send a copy and we'll try that in another week or two when it shows up. Thanks again to everyone who helped. We'll let you all know how the new version works.
