It was heavily criticized as buggy by the media, primarily due to file corruption issues with DoubleSpace and the lack of tools to repair such issues. Note that the boot sector OEM ID of 'MSDOS6.0' is correct and genuine. Microsoft reverted to using 'MSDOS5.0' on later disks.

Installation instructions The 'Full' version can be installed on a blank drive or as an upgrade with an uninstall option.

Create DOS install disk number 1: Format disk 1 Insert Disk on floppy drive. Format the disk. Follow the same method as describes on step 1 above, but this time do not check the box that says Create an MS DOS startup disk. Regarding volume label you don’t have to worry about it at this point.
