AD&D Gateway to the Savage Frontier

If anyone has/had this can you help me please with a couple questions:

1. How many disks does the 3 1/2 floppy version come with? The disk inside the box says "Disk 1" but doesn't ask for another disk or anything after installing.

2. Was meant to be played in pure DOS, correct?

I'm almost positive that it should be played in pure DOS.

Is your disk a HD one? Is it black? It's been forever since I've played this, but here are two auctions:

This one has one black, HD disk:

This one has two disks:

The 2nd disk might have been for different video cards, or not... I'm not too sure, but if your disk is high density, I think that's all you need.

Disk looks like that from the 2nd auction you listed.

Well, the Home of the Underdogs has the archive...

And, it's only 983k... which should be one disk. Here's what's in that archive:

If you have all of those files, you should be fine.

I installed it earlier with no isses. Didn't play thanks to stack overlows and mem issues but I'm beliving for the most part it should all be in order.
