the select was the installer before is added in the version 4.0x?
If you want to call it an installer. Select in MS-DOS 3.3 copied the system files and NLS files and created minimal config.sys and autoexec.bat with appropriate country and keyb statements, but you still had to copy the rest of MS-DOS to your main disk manually. Also, it was completely non-interactive.

The DOS 4.0 select was a full, interactive installation program.
