Assuming the alternate drive is formatted and accessible during
install, continue the install to the point that you are instructed to
reboot (or remove the floppy from drive A, etc) then hit F3 and go to
the command line.  Use TEDIT to edit config.sys to read like you want
then reboot.

If you can't catch it there, then hit ALT-F1 when the 'boot blob'
(white square in the upper left of the screen during boot).  Select the
option to go to the command line and do the changes as above.

It's less grief to just wait til the install is done then make all the
changes at once with a subsequent reboot.
