While on a Win98 desktop I ran uttcpdos.exe and installed all the
above files to a non-booting floppy (installation terminated on a
bootable floppy due to lack of space). I then copied over all the files
with the exception of the HELPMSGx.DAT files (again space limitations)
to a bootable floppy. After trying ps2.exe the message displayed was 
"Install DOS ThinkPad configurations again" and then terminated. 

If I booted from a separate bootable floppy and then inserted the floppy
containing the complete set of uttcpdos installed files and tried the 
ps2.exe I got an error message saying the the 'command.com' 
file was bad ... if I then reinserted the
bootable floppy it found command.com and then terminated.

I'm not quite sure what to do at this point. It seems as if one of the
two options above would have allowed me to use the ps2.exe from the 
floppy. Any quesses as to what else I should do? 

Many thanks.
