I intend doing trying this as I am hacked off with Win95 hanging all
the time.  I only need win95 for a couple of programs, but I could do
with having Linux on my machine and dos/win3.11  I have had
dos/win3.11 and linux on my machine before and I was doing a lot of
swapping of bootdiscs, creating the first primary partition with dos
then using linux to create the linux partitions and dos again for the
other dos partitions.  I shall have to put my second drive in and my
other cd rom (CR563) as linux doesn't recognise my Mitsumi 4x cdrom
when trying to install.
