Handy here is a file from MS called DELPART. S:\UTILS contains text-mode utilities you might want on install. S:\WINDOWS contains the Windows 3.1 setup files, in a single directory S:\MSDOS contains the contents of the three floppies, along with the supplement files if desired.

You have now installed MS-DOS 6.22 to your PC without using floppy disks. You should now successfully boot to DOS from the Hard disk. You should also check to see if the drive partition is active in fdisk. If you see a blinking cursor then insert Disk 1 and press F3 twice to enter a DOS prompt. If your pc boots normally then you are done. When it prompts you, insert the next disk and wait till the drive is activated then press enter and repeat until setup is finshed. Now, boot off of Disk 1 and continue setup as normal.

Turn on your test PC and change your bios settings to be in ATA compatibility mode and not ACHI mode. Now, you need to burn each iso to a CD or DVD.

I tried to emulate using a USB Pen Drive but all my attempts have failed. Unfortunately, there was no guide on the internet to help me and I did not feel the will to get USB Floppy Drives and Floppies. After many failed attempts of trying to install MS-DOS 7.0 and not feeling it with FreeDOS, I have decided to try to install MS-DOS 6.22.
