There is one problem with 360K diskettes that I did not thought about initially: their size. :) The first SvarDOS installation disk requires some basic tools and files to set itself up. These files can be grouped in 3 categories: SYSTEM (kernel, format, fdisk, sys..) = 250K NLS (EGA*.CPX, MODE, DISPLAY) = 150K USER TOOLS (edit, mem, more) = 100K All this adds up to more than 360K. The only reasonable solution I see is to trim out "NLS" from the 360K install set. This means that the installer would be English-only (but it would still be possible to install the target system in another language). It's also worth noting that a SvarDOS install set on 360K diskettes would take quite a lot of disks: a grand total of 9 floppies. (!) Does it make sense? Is it worth it? Mateusz
