I am running Windows 98 on my UMAX, 300 Mhrz, Pentium 2 PC. Through Windows, I am running the Setup program. I choose option #5: "DOS Set up to install from a DOS partition" When I check the "Binary base distribution", (it says it is required), and then choose "ok", an error box appears. It says "BIN.INF: Permission denied. Press ESC". My questions are what does this mean and how do I install the system onto my PC? Thank you so much for your time.
