When you run the Setup program from drive B, the message "please
insert disk into drive A" may occur. You can temporarily force drive B
to emulate drive A. Using the DOS ASSIGN command, type

   ASSIGN A=B

at the C:\DOS> prompt. Then, run MSETUP from drive B. After rebooting
the system, the drives will return to their normal configuration.
