Hum,
A tricky one that....
The OS3.9 CD contains all the files for an emergency boot disk to be made... you have to copy those by hand...
I presume that you do have a hard-drive. in which case; look for a magazine disk that will actually boot up your machine, then you can copy those emergency files to the HD....
or
to make a bootable floppy with most of the file that you need...
Is it possible to install an earlier OS copy? THEN UPGRADE those files with the files that you salvage from mag cover disks etc?
Anyway good luck,
perhaps someone else can help you.
