Option number one is unzip the file, delete what you don't need, and
rezip it. A lot of the distribution is fonts, so it should be easy to
get rid of a lot of them and make it fit on one disk.
Option number two, maybe easier, is use dd on the Linux system to split
the file onto two floppies, then just use copy (with the /b flag!) on
the dos box to put it back together.
Email if you need help. The win32 demo is very good, imho.
