EDIT: Never mind, got things working with the help of someone from another forum.

Setup Detection Error

Error SU-0013

Setup could not create files on your startup drive
and cannot set up Windows.

If you have HPFS or Windows NT file system, you
must create an MS-DOS boot partition. If you have
LANtastic server or SuperStor compression, disable it
before running Setup. See SETUP.TXT on Setup Disk
1 or the Windows CD-ROM.

Below is the original post.

I have the boot disk image (IMG) and the install CD-ROM (ISO). I mounted both on my 2 GB VM and booted the IMG. It ran fine, and after going through most of the alphabet I finally found out that the CD ended up at R:\ for whatever reason. Then I tried to install Windows 95, and ran into this (keystrokes are denoted in square brackets):

Code: Select all

R:\>SETUP.EXE
Please wait while setup initializes.

Setup is now going to perform a routine check on your system.

To continue, press ENTER. To quit Setup, press ESC. [ENTER]

This version of Microsoft's ScanDisk will work only with MS-DOS versions 5.0 and 
later.
Setup found a compressed volume or a disk-cache utility on your 
computer. Quit Setup and check your compressed volume with 
your disk compression software or remove the disk-cache utility. 
Then run Setup again.

If you have already done so, press ESC.

For more information, see SETUP.TXT on Setup Disk 1 or the Windows CD.

To quit Setup, press ENTER. To continue with Setup, press ESC. [ESC]
Please wait while Setup initializes.
Cannot create a temporary directory.
If you have HPFS or NTFS installed on your hard drive, 
you will need to create an MS-DOS boot partition to set up Windows.

That doesn't help. From the only relevant sticky:

For this tutorial, I presume, that you are able to install the OS.

No, I am not.

EDIT: A user on another forum told me about fdisk and format C:\, and that seemed to work, but I still get an error (see the first post)

The same error? can you boot only into DOS and go to C: make a dir manually?
