If anybody remember waiting for WINDOWS 3.5 project by me (anybody waited?), you'll probably like this project.
As far as I know, nobody made a Windows 3.1 setup editor with bundled add-ons. So i thought "Hey, i remember WINDOWS 3.5, why not make a wizard from a project?" and there it is.
You need to download Windows for Workgroups script EVEN if you use Windows 3.1x (NOT wfw).
All scripts can be downloaded from WinBuilder on THIS server:
asiekierka.boot-land.net/updates
It hasn't been discussed elsewhere in THIS form, but here's a link to WINDOWS 3.5 thread: http://www.boot-land...view=getnewpost
-HOWTO-
Make directory for Source and Target.
In source directory, put files from ALL of your Windows 3.1x/WfW 3.1x diskettes/floppy images.
Set WinBuilder's Source directory to the directory where you put files from Win/WfW3.1x setup,
and target directory to one you made.
Download the WinCust directory from asiekierka.boot-land.net/updates.
Set up the script.
And now, just, BUILD IT!
Then burn files from target directory to a CD.
Make a floppy with MS-DOS 6.22 and CD drivers.
Load the floppy.
Type: "SYS A: C:" without the quotes.
Then load setup.
Hooray, you're DONE!
Current version: v0.8 (1.0 beta).
WARNING: I wouldn't do any more software. I will release only bugfixes. I just don't have any ideas. If you want to do one, feel free.
Thank you,
Adrian Siekierka, 2007.
BTW: You can make your own addons! Send me them in zipped form on asiekierka@gmail.com. (they can't have EXEs in).
