How to Create
Diskettes for Software Installation
To create a set of diskettes for use in installation,
as an alternative to installing from the Xircom CD-ROM, you will need access
to a system with both diskette and CD-ROM drives available, and two or
more blank formatted diskettes.
Run the program MAKEDISK.BAT from the Xircom
CD-ROM using Start, Run. Follow the onscreen instructions to copy and label
the diskettes. When the Installation and Setup
instructions refer to the Xircom CD-ROM, use the appropriate diskette instead.
