Hey! (Story) I recently set up a classic Windows 98SE system. When I attempt to install MS-DOS from a custom-made floppy made in Windows ME, I keep getting the "BOOT DISK FAILURE" message. I’m not very familiar with older computers, so any advice would be greatly appreciated. (Issue) Disk failure during MS-DOS installation. (Details) Hardware: Pentium III 1.0GHz, Abit VH-6 motherboard, 512MB RAM, GeForce 2 GTS, 32MB RAM, 60GB HDD, 1.44MB floppy drive, IDE DVD-RW. Note: In Finland it’s hard to locate anything released before 2010, so I’m hoping my situation can be fixed easily.

I understand the limit is 32MB. You can find more details here: https://www.google.com/search?sxsrf=ALeK...+disk+size

The value used is 3.0 because it aligns with the specific requirements or calculations in the context. The exact reason would depend on the formula or data being referenced.
