New features and changes[edit | edit source]

  • This build includes a beta release of DoubleDisk 3.0 by VertiSoft, which is set up by launching the MDSETUP.BAT batch file. DoubleDisk was later used as a foundation for DoubleSpace.
  • Microsoft Diagnostics (MSD.EXE) has been added.

Findings[edit | edit source]

  • Towards the end of setup, a "More to come..." placeholder text appears in the billboards.
  • The setup billboard text mentions both clean and interactive boot options, but they weren't implemented until the next build.
