XOSL Bootmanager cannot be installed: UBCD 3.4

Problem: XOSL Bootmanager cannot be installed. Installation into dedicated partition and / or in dos drive fails with error.

Solution: XOSL creates backupfile as installation starts. But CD-ROM is Read-only-Memory.

Workaround: Create dos-formatted partition with fat 32 or 16. Start UBCD then abort installation and copy all files to either a RAM-Drive or to this dos formatted Partition (not the one which shall be the dedicated partition!)
Then type install in this directory at command prompt. Enjoy one of the best Bootmanagers in the world!

@ Programmers for the next UBCD-Version: Please create RAM-Drive so that your Ultimate Boot CD works also with this Program.
