I also could not install 3.1 from my Digital Research 36x IDE CD-ROM as
running install.bat resulted in "bad command or file name."  To get around
this, I made the CD-ROM the first boot device and away I went - 3.1 is now
installed!

However, if people don't have bootable CD-ROM drives and are following the
documentation in the jewel case, they're not going to be very happy when
the get "bad command or file name!"
