Some pointers:
	1. Try to do "by the book" installations whenever possible.
	2. Get DR6WIN.ZIP from an ftp site or Novell's bbs. (I don't have
	those numbers handy just now, but email if you want them.)
	3. Install DR6WIN exactly according to instructions. You may want to
	consult your local DRDOS retailer for a summary sheet on this.
	4. No need to install windows on uncompressed disk space. Just leave
	a few megs of uncompressed space free for a swapfile (virtual memory).
