Are you asking for instructions on using unix or downloading dos? DOS is copyrighted and it would be illeagal to download, to tell the truth. There are plenty of good sites about UNIX-based operating systems out there. You can download just about any version at of linux at linuxiso.com and find pleanty of help at linuxnewbie.org . Be specific about what your goal is and I will offer some more advice, if you would like.

now i'm confused. I have a computer with unix on it. I dont like unix. I already have dos but I do not know how to put dos on the computer because I dont know the unix commands. I want to change unix to dos. dont know how to say it another way. maybe someone can explain better what I want to do.

Sorry, I misunderstood you. I would make a windoze 98 or whatever bood disk with command to start up the linux box, then use that interface to format the hd and then install dos. The disk 1 of the DOS install might be prepared to do this anyway, but I am not sure.

ok. never mind the dos. How do i install windows 95 over unix. The book tells me how to install it on dos but not on unix. a SIMPLE answer would be nice. also, what is the commands for unix and dos to dump the hard drive. I've seen it done once but forgot the commands. Thanks people.

you cannot install windows ON unix. You still need to format the drive to FAT. make a boot disk from a fat (dos or windows) computer and boot from that to format the drive and use fdisk to do the partitions

ok thanks gethedge.
