IRIX 6.5 Installation Tools, June '98 README
Silicon Graphics, Inc.
--------------------------------------------
This CD contains the miniroot and other components necessary to boot
the system into the basic installation environment for operating
system installs and upgrades. It also contains a set of documentation
called "Customer Welcome, June '98", and several necessary patches. Inst
automatically selects these patches for installation -- do not deselect them.
In the future, updated versions of this Installation Tools CD will
contain maintenance (bug fixes) and feature upgrades to IRIX 6.5 called
"overlays".
Important
---------
Before upgrading to IRIX 6.5, you must read the "Start Here" section
of the documentation contained in the Customer Welcome. This
documentation is included on the IRIX 6.5 Base Documentation CD so
that you can view it online prior to installation.
To view the Start Here pages:
1. Insert the Base Documentation CD into the CD-ROM drive.
2. Open a Web browser and go to:
file:/CDROM/Welcome/yourSystem.html
3. Click the "Start Here" link.
Startup Script
--------------
This Installation Tools CD provides a script to help you prepare for
installation. This script checks for old kernel files and large files
you may no longer need and, with your approval, removes them.
Silicon Graphics strongly recommends that you run the startup script.
