So all those Win98SE disks were not bootable?  hard to believe!  Mind you, 
it was several years ago, but...

I am searching for a fully bootable, installation disk for WinME right 
now.  But very few people actually went out abd BOUGHT WinME, it seems, so 
tracking down an original disk is proving difficult.

Later:  Interesting.  I found what looks like a Win98 boot CD image, which 
is only 2,451,456 bytes.  I wonder what all else i can squeeze into the 
..iso before burning to an 80mm disk?

And I also wonder why I allow my friends to put me to all this trouble!
