I've installed DOS on a new SCSI drive and run WINNT in \I386 on the CD
ROM.

Once it's made the boot floppy set, it bombs out with a "run-time error
R6000 - stack overflow" !  Has anybody else seen this problem ?  If so,
was there a simple work around ?


Come to think of it, didn't somebody say that MS had dropped support for
the 386 under NT 4.0 ?  If so, it seems a bit perverse to call the
directory on the CD ROM \I386 !


Cheers, J/.
