Win95 may not have the automatic capability, but you can make an homemade
boot disk with the CD-ROM info, drivers, etc, in the autoexec.bat &
config.sys files which will work. If going the Win98 boot disk method,
wouldn't it be prudent to replace the command.com with a Win95 compatible
version?

PS: where can we get a more "ideal driver" for this purpose than Oak?
