F2TAR.EXE Utility to transfer UNIXDRVR.TAR onto a formatted diskette.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1. Prepare a formatted diskette on any DOS machine.
C>format a:
³ ³
³ À Diskette drive
À Dos prompt
Note: You must have a disk that does not have any bad sectors.
Verify this with the DOS command - CHKDSK
C>chkdsk a:
³ ³
³ À Diskette drive
À Dos prompt
2. Run F2TAR.EXE to generate an Installation Diskette for UNIX system.
a. After executing the "f2tar" command, the following message will be
shown on the screen:
"Target drive letter (press 'A' or 'B') : "
press 'A' for the first drive, 'B' for second drive.
b. Then "f2tar" will load the data file "unixdrvr.tar" into memory
and display the following messages:
"Reading file, please wait."
......
"Done."
c. Note if you are using the same drive for both Source Diskette and
UNIX Installation Diskette, "f2tar" will show the message:
"Remove the original diskette from drive A"
or
"Remove the original diskette from drive B"
d. When the message
"Insert a formatted diskette into drive A and press [ENTER] :"
or
"Insert a formatted diskette into drive B and press [ENTER] :"
is shown on the screen, put the formatted blank diskette into
drive A (or B) as indicated in the message. Press <Enter>
e. After transferring the files, the following messages will be shown.
"Generating UNIX Installation Diskette on drive ()"
"Press [Ctrl][C] to abort."
If you want to abort the operation, press <Ctrl> and <C>
at the same time.
Please wait for a few seconds, and the UNIX Installation Diskette
will be created. Note that the resulting diskette is in UNIX
tar format; it cannot be read by DOS.
3. Remove the UNIX Installation Diskette, login to UNIX system as root.
After the data file has been tranferred completely, you will see
"Please remove the diskette from drive A".
If you are using the same drive for both Source Diskette and UNIX
Installation Diskette, the messages below will be shown on the
screen too.
"Please insert the original diskette to drive A"
"Press [ENTER] to continue ..."
So put Source Diskette back to the drive indicated by the message,
and press <Enter> key.
Now the UNIX Installation Diskette is ready for use, please login
to UNIX system as supervisor (root).
( Note: Please make sure the current directory is "/" using UNIX
command - pwd. )
4. Run custom utility and select Install new package. It will prompt you
to insert 16-BIT Ethernet LLI driver disk. After reading drive A, it
will show a message to inform you to use netconfig or mkdev <driver>
(this case- en16) to add drivers into your system.
If you use mkdev en16, you must use mkdev tcp and select en16 for
this LLI driver to complete configuration.
5. Use the program "1step" to configure Accton's 16-bit Ethernet adapter.
6. If you encounter any problems during installation, (i.e., an error
message appears on-screen) call your dealer for assistance.
