SYMPTOMS
If you are using 4DOS as your command interpreter and your AUTOEXEC.BAT file is not in the root directory, MS-DOS 6 or 6.2 Upgrade Setup cannot find AUTOEXEC.BAT. Setup can find your AUTOEXEC.BAT file only if it is located in your root directory.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, move your AUTOEXEC.BAT file to the root directory before you install MS-DOS 6 Upgrade. If you have already upgraded to MS-DOS 6, edit the AUTOEXEC.BAT file (created by Setup) in the root directory and add the information from your old AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
