Windows 98 runs on a DOS kernel, so all windows 98 systems run on a
"valid" DOS disk. Edit your msdos.sys and turn your GUI off. Or just
make yourself a boot disk and format the drive.
Doesn't it still run on virtual FAT even without the GUI?
No, it shouldn't. There are no VFAT or virtual drivers loaded.
What I mean is, the disk is configured for use with a VFAT driver.
Doesn't that cause compatibility problems when working under the FAT
under DOS?
Frank;
The way I understand it, is that the disk is configured or uses
FAT. VFAT serves as an interface between applications and the FAT.
So there shouldn't be any compatibilty problems when running DOS
programs.
