Win95 was available on 3and 1/2 inch floppies, that did not require a CD in order to install. One of my clients had 10 sets in 1995, if they have not thrown everything out I can send you one. It was never available on 5-1/4 inch floppies.
Appologies i meant 3 1/2. the problem is were getting an error and the OS being in french we dont know why. how ever i think it has to do with the fact their is no dos OS on the PC and the Disks we have dont come with it so i need to get MS Dos or just settile of O/S2 which i can scrounge up *With some difficulty*

minfo(1) General Commands Manual minfo(1)
Name
minfo - print the parameters of a MSDOS filesystem
Note of warning
This manpage has been automatically generated from mtools's texinfo documentation, and may not be entirely accurate or complete. See the
end of this man page for details.
Description
The minfo command prints the parameters of a Dos filesystem, such as number of sectors, heads and cylinders. It also prints an mformat
command line which can be used to create a similar Dos filesystem on another media. However, this doesn't work with 2m or Xdf media, and
with Dos 1.0 filesystems minfo drive:
Mlabel supports the following option:
v Prints a hexdump of the bootsector, in addition to the other information

Viewing the texi doc
This manpage has been automatically generated from mtools's texinfo documentation. However, this process is only approximative, and some
items, such as crossreferences, footnotes and indices are lost in this translation process. Indeed, these items have no appropriate repre-
sentation in the manpage format. Moreover, not all information has been translated into the manpage version. Thus I strongly advise you
to use the original texinfo doc. See the end of this manpage for instructions how to view the texinfo doc.
* To generate a printable copy from the texinfo doc, run the following commands:
./configure; make dvi; dvips mtools.dvi
* To generate a html copy, run:
./configure; make html
A premade html can be found at: `http://mtools.linux.lu' and also at: `http://www.tux.org/pub/knaff/mtools'
* To generate an info copy (browsable using emacs' info mode), run:
./configure; make info
The texinfo doc looks most pretty when printed or as html. Indeed, in the info version certain examples are difficult to read due to the
quoting conventions used in info.
