I don't think E/Dos is too paranoid about writing too disks, I was installing Adobe Photoshop 3.0m onto a network DOS partition, using all the long filenames. Heres is what I do/did/have.
I have a Mini network under 95, one 386, one 486. My dad doesn't want any of my "crap" on his disk, so I put the E/Dos, on a Plus HardCard (50 megs), and ran E/Dos over the network. It only found the System.hfv file, and the Windows95 partitions. I ran the demo installer program, which died when it got to disk to, because Adobe didn't make the CD's properly. (I got the disk at Graph Expo in Chicago, from Adobe). (It also died on a real mac, with the message please insert disk 2). Anyway, I told it to write to a Win95 partition because I couldn't get an hfv file, and it did. It didn't have any provblem, the only thing was, that the name of the directory was %Adobe PhotoShop 3.(something), and then there was another file, that should have gone in the "folder", called %%Adobe PhotoShop 3.(something).
Adobe Illustrator 5.5 (demo) doesn't work. Streamline works, but crashes when zooming. Didn't try PM. Didn't try Persuasion (no QT). If you have any other Adobe products that you want tried out, IF they are on the CD, I will try em out and let you know. Ohh, Demensions doesn't work, no FPU, and one is required. You CAN"T use a software emulator, no CDEV, or INIT support.
Hopefully soon, I will be able to run it on a Pentium.
Also, running it on a Pentium Pro, should not speed it up, becuase as far as I know, it is not a true 32 bit app, at least not the DOS version. If I'm wrong, feel free to let me know.
