I remember coming across a similar problem some time ago. I ended up writing a program that made the change in SETUP.INF (according to the size of the custom file) and then it made the setup disks.

The second part is data that will be different with each install. I want the SETUP.EXE on the first disk to be able to install a file called DISTRICT.DAT from the third DISK. I was able to modify the SETUP.INF file that the setup.app produced to include a third disk under

Is there a way to tell the SETUP.EXE program to not check the size of the file when installing my data from the third diskette? I have tried replacing 609482 with a 0 and with a blank. Both caused the setup to fail. Any suggestions..
