This is not sourced from original media. I had copies of the files on my hard disk, and while it matches known-good checksums (eg: https://doomwiki.org/wiki/DOOM2.WAD), I had to reconstruct the floppy set myself. The set was created by running msdos622 in the ct486 driver with a CD-ROM attached. I put the loose files on an ISO image, mounted it in the DOS machine, and then formatted floppies and copied the files to them just as the normal Doom installation sets work.

Due to this nature, I am marking this as a “bad dump” in the hopes someone may be able to find and dump the original disks.
