Has anyone installed ms-dos in fusion without the use of an external floppy drive? and if so where do I find a step by step guide in how to do that, I have been googling for a couple of hours know and can't get it to work.

Use a disk image of the DOS install disks and it should be pretty easy.

Thats what I was using but for some reason they did not do the job, I found online some other disks for the same version I was trying to install and all is good now. (used the same methods that failed on me before so I guess something was wrong with the images)
