Hello!

When I applied the patch on files from the distributive and then crafted my own ISO image, booted from a disquette image to run an install, and first installation process worked good, however, on a first boot, it just turned into the too small screen and it's impossible to perform any work because of that.

Did I any mistakes during the patch applying? What I did:

  • I extracted vmm32.vxd from one of archives
  • I patched it
  • I placed it on the same place as distro root itself.
  • I used two CD-ROMs in my VM: first to boot original image, and second to plug a custom ISO without boot.

However, recently, while opening multiple archives, found the vmm32.vxd is presented at multiple archives at the same time. Should I patch every of them and repack an archive back? I going to try something like, because before this moment I didn't figured about this.
