Notes on rebuilding an AT&T PC 6300/WGS computer:  Boot the Supplimental
and Installation Diskette and type INSTLDOS and follow the prompts.  All
four diskettes will copied and some autoexec.bat changes will be made.
You can do this even if the hard drive hasn't been partitioned (fdisk is
called as part of the installation).

Notes on the built-in clock:  The built-in clock is not Y2K compliant;
in fact, it is not even Y1992 compliant :) since the register for a year
is 3 bits wide, limiting the date from Jan 1984 to Dec. 1991.  However,
the *operating system* is Y2K compliant; you can enter a date of
7-23-2008 and the system will operate just fine, although on reboot the
date will be 7-23-1984 if pulled from the clock again.
