1. INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

  a. NDIS driver Installation Procedure:

     1. Insert your copy of Pathway Drivers diskette into drive A. Enter:

       C:\>A:

     2. To install the software, enter:

       A:\> pwinstal C:

       where C: is the disk drive (you could also use D:, E:, and so on)
       that you intend to use for the installation of your Pathway software
       on a hard drive system.	The PWINSTAL program automatically installs
       the driver software in a directory named \PATHWAY on the drive you
       specified.

       The installation is complete when you receive the following
       message: "The Pathway Drivers have been copied successfully.  Refer to
       documentation to complete driver installation."

     3. Insert the driver diskette in drive A and copy the NDIS driver to the
       subdirectory where you installed the Pathway software:

       A:\> Copy A:\NDIS\DOS\SMC8022.DOS C:\PATHWAY

     4. Edit the C:\CONFIG.SYS file to contain the following entries :

       DEVICE=C:\PATHWAY\PWTCP.SYS
       DEVICE=C:\PATHWAY\PROTMAN.EXE/I:C:\PATHWAY
       DEVICE=C:\PATHWAY\SMC8022.DOS


     5. Use a text editor to create a PROTOCOL.INI file in C:\PATHWAY
	with the following section:

       [SMC8022]
       DriverName = SMCEZ$

     6. The startup batch file - autoexec.bat should have the following entries
       in the order shown :

       path=c:\pathway
       ndis [-d:#]
       pwbind

       where the -d option is used when accessing a specific module number
       within protocol.ini.  In your protocol.ini file, a line enclosed by
       square brackets designates the beginning of a new module.  Each module
       is referred to by a hexadecimal number.	The first module is module
       number one. The second module is module two, and so on.

  b. Pathway Kernel Installation Procedure

     1. Insert the Pathway Kernel diskette in drive A. Enter:

       C:\>A:

     2. To install the software, enter:

       A:\> pwinstal C:

       where C: is the hard drive name (you could also use D:, E:, and so on)
       that you intend to use for the installation of your Pathway software.
       The PWINSTAL program automatically installs
       the driver software in a directory named \PATHWAY on the drive you
       specified.

       Diskette copying is complete when you see the following message:
       "Pathway Kernel files have been copied successfully.  Reboot and refer
       to the documentation to complete kernel installation."

     3. Remove the diskette from drive A: and reboot your PC by pressing <Ctrl>,
       <Alt>, and <Del> at the same time.

     4. Change current directory to \PATHWAY.

     5. Run the CUSTOM program to set or change the following parameters:

       . The Internet address
       . The subnet bits (if your network has subnetworks)
       . The gateway address (if you are communicating with hosts outside your
	 local network)

     6. Remove the diskette from drive A: and reboot your PC by pressing <Ctrl>,
       <Alt>, and <Del> at the same time.

     7. Enter the following command to load the Kernel:

       C:\PATHWAY> PWTCP

     8. Test your PC by using the PING program:

       C:\PATHWAY> PING hostname
