10 MB is too small.  10 GB might be to small.  Why don't you go to the 
site and see what is recommended.

Also how are you trying to install and why are you using that method?

Did you remember to runch

	Really what does a Live Linux distribution using modern tools like 
GPartEd tell you about your equipment.  If you have enough
CPU speed and enough memory you should be running everything MS-DOS
Windows, in a GNU/Linux emulation software like VirtualBox and their
are specific DOS emulators.  Maybe you could do that with CAE Linux.
I never neard of it before I looked it up I could reply to you.
Probably a good choice.  See if it will play nice with VB or one of
the other emulations wares.

	Good luck!
