What exactly is a boot disk?
Wengier's MS-DOS710 boot disk seems very good.
But what should I do if I don't have an A: drive?
My NIC driver's DOS driver doesn't have Packet like what Wengier said...
How should I tell which one is for DOS?
Please help me, everyone.

As the name implies, a boot disk is something that can be used to boot. In other words, you just put it into the computer and get things ready, and then it can boot automatically.

In Taiwan, a boot disk is called a "startup floppy"~

If you don't have an A: drive, then you'll have to boot with a USB flash drive. Or ask someone to burn it as a bootable CD.

The following is quoted from 保尔 on 2003-6-20 23:19:23:

The C: drive is the hard disk, so that means installing DOS on the hard disk,
