China DOS Union

Software/hardware environment: an IBM ThinkPad 560e laptop, with floppy drive, no CD-ROM drive, 3Com 3c589d combo 10M network card (PC Card), 2G hard disk; divided into C and D, two FAT32 partitions, and the Windows 98 system on the drive has already been damaged and formatted!
Another machine is a Duron-compatible desktop, Windows 98SE, with an onboard Realtek8139 10/100M adaptive network card.
Task ^_^: first upload the Windows 98SE installation files from the latter machine's hard disk to the 560e, and then install the system. Best if the original partitions are not damaged.

I'm also just helping a classmate. I previously tried installing nwlite and msclient3, but because I'm too much of a newbie, it didn't work out. This situation is rather special: the laptop is very old (PMMX), but the network card is relatively new (the above software doesn't come with the driver, and after downloading the for DOS driver I don't know how to use it).
Now I'm asking friends who support DOS and support China DOS Union to please help out! Show some concern for the future of the motherland, tomorrow's hope ^_^ Thanks

If you want to keep it simple, you might as well use the IPX protocol to transfer files. Under DOS on both computers (including in a DOS window), install the IPX protocol respectively and then use IPXCOPY.

I just installed MCLIENT3 and it feels pretty good, so I recommend it to you. Installation is very convenient; just follow moderator WENGIER's method, the article is in "DOS Usage".
As for your network card, when installing MCLIENT the system will automatically detect it and then let you choose. At that point select the second item with a * in front, enter the directory path where you put your network card driver, and the system will install the driver.

Many thanks to Wengier and pluto_zj for helping me! Right now I've run into a problem installing the network card driver under DOS. After extracting the network card driver, I found I had no idea where to start, especially when installing msclient3 and choosing a driver, I don't know which one to select. Please help me.

Sorry, everyone, this directory structure is a bit long. I had no choice but to do it this way because I was afraid of leaving something out. Thanks, everyone!
