The TinyTERM install program may ask for the drive the PC boots from, and will default to C:\. If you click OK, it will ask again, this time specifying C:\CONFIG.SYS. Every time you click OK, another CONFIG.SYS is added to the directory path.

When this happens, it means there is no CONFIG.SYS file on C:. TinyTERM does not do anything with the file, but the install will not proceed if it’s not there.

To bypass this, cancel the TinyTERM install. In the root of the C: drive, create an empty CONFIG.SYS file. Then start the TinyTERM install again. It will proceed normally.
