installing on nameless CDROM

[Marlon Urias]

IF given an old 486 with a blank HD and the CDROM has no manufacturer
name on it, how do you install something like Win 95 that does not come
on a bootable CD? I mean I could setup the CD via autoexec.bat and
config.sys on a DOS boot disk but those assume that I have the right
driver. Is there a universal driver I can use? where is it?
It a weird chicken and egg thing, you can only install W95 from a CD
but you cant get the computer to recognize the CDROM.
Thanks for the help.                    marlon
