INSTALLING
If you are installing this release via ftp, off of a hard drive, or through
a PCMCIA card, you need both a boot disk and a supplemental disk. If you are
installing via NFS or CDROM without using a PCMCIA adapter you only need
a boot disk. If you did not receive floppy disks with this product, the
images for these disks are in the images directory. Either the rawrite program
in the dosutils directory or 'dd' under any Unix like system can be used
to transfer the image to physical floppies. Once the diskettes are made,
insert the boot disk and boot your machine.
