The notebook is a bare machine, with no system, no optical drive, and no floppy drive. How to install the XP system? The notebook only supports USB FDD, so only a USB boot disk can be made. But how to copy the I38 directory from the Windows installation disk to the notebook? The mobile hard disk can't make a USB FDD boot disk. So I don't know how to copy the I38 directory to the notebook. The I38 directory is about 500M. So the general flash drive can't hold it. How can I install the XP system in this case?

You also said that to install XP, the I38 directory is necessary. Since there isn't such a large flash drive, try using USBASPI.SYS, USBMASS version 4.05, or USBENAB version 4.05 to drive your external hard drive.

I placed USBASPI.SYS into my USB boot disk, then added DEVICE=usbaspi.sys in config.sys. After restarting, I got "The following file is missing or corrupted: command.com type the name of the command Interpreter(e.g., c:\windows\command.com.
What's the matter here?
Also, when I executed several executable files in the http://www.cn-dos.net/forum/view...p;highlight=USBMASS under DOS, the machine died. No response.

The following file is missing or corrupted: command.com type the name of the command Interpreter(e.g., c:\windows\command.com
DOS didn't find command.com
This has nothing to do with loading usbaspi.sys. Check if there is SHELL=A:\COMMAND.COM in config.sys... If there is, change it to SHELL=COMMAND.COM... Then check PATH
Parameters of USBASPI.SYS

It is best to post the config.sys and autoexec.bat.

The problem is corrupted:command.com type the name of the command Interpreter (e.g., c:\windows\command.com Then the cursor just stops at A> here, and pressing any key shows corrupted:command.com type the name of the command Interpreter. So I don't know what to do.

Does your USB flash drive support USB-FDD boot?
That is to say, the partition used for booting on your USB flash drive should be 1.44MB.
If not, DOS cannot boot normally.

I used usboot - v1.68 to make a USB flash drive bootable. After making it, I didn't see config.sys, only three files: IO.SYS, MSDOS.SYS, COMMAND.COM. So I can't add Usbaspi.sys to config.sys.

After confirming that the USB flash drive is formatted in FDD mode, put these 5 files in the root directory of the USB flash drive, see the attachment

After I formatted with fdd, I copied the files from temp.rar to the flash drive. But after booting, the following appears:
The following file is missing or corrupted : DI1000DD.SYS
corrupted:command.com type the name of the command Interpreter(e.g., c:\windows\command.com
What does this error mean?
