My machine is currently running Win98SE.
Because of design needs, I need to install Win32 as well, that is, a dual-boot system.
But the DOS version on my machine is too high,
seems to be 7.1.
And Win32 can only run on DOS 6.22 or below.
What should I do?
So depressed ing
How do I install DOS 6.22?
It seems that if I install DOS 6.22, it will wipe everything on that drive... the loss would be too great, I can't bear it.
Could some expert give me some pointers? Thanks

Rename the extensions of msdos.sys, io.sys, and command.com from MS-DOS 6.22 to .dos, copy them to the root directory of drive C, then modify win98's msdos.sys (seems like changing one variable to 1) so that it has a "previous dos" boot item. Choose that item at startup and you can enter MS-DOS 6.22.

Windows 3.2 can run under MS-DOS 7.1. See this article I wrote:
http://newdos.yginfo.net/dosart3.htm

If the system has FAT32 partitions or the hard disk is relatively large, don't use MS-DOS 6.x. It also does not support long filenames.

You can use Michael's method, provided that your C drive is no larger than 2GB and is in FAT16 format.

But Michael's method is still not as convenient as directly running Win3.x under MS-DOS 7.1, and MS-DOS 6.x is obviously outdated and impractical now. MS-DOS 7.1 is much more powerful.

I agree with Wengier. I originally had DOS 6.22 + Win3.2 installed (using a separate partition), and now I'm using Wengier's method. It works very well.

Using a virtual machine to install it is OK. There are two kinds, VMware and VPC, both are fine. You can install anything inside them. Hehe...

Wengie:
After using your method, can it still enter Windows 98?

Happy: Of course. I've used it for about a year and never had any problems.

There are two kinds of virtual machines, VMware and VPC. Bro, could you write an article on how to use them? Where can I download them?

I recommend using SPFDISK for partitioning
