That would have sucked to install that way. I did OS/2 2.0 that way and it did suck.

- tpmx 4y agoPresumably it was only offered on high density 1.2 MB 5.25" floppies, so not that bad compared to the 1.68 MB weirdo DMF-formatted 3.5" floppies Windows 95 was normally delivered on. Still, would be interesting to see a photo of those 5.25" Windows 95 disks. (https://winworldpc.com/product/windows-95/rtm https://winworldpc.com/product/windows-95/rtm has three dumps of 5.25" 1.2 MB disks.)
- sumtechguy 4y agoPretty sure it was 1.2MB HD. There was something along the lines of 20-25 of them. Then lord help you if suddenly the system would panic because it was slightly out of spec of what OS2 wanted (usually halfway thru). Also if memory serves me I think you could tell the windows installer to make a set of disks from a CD. Then you got to feed the beast a bunch of floppies.
