Creating client install diskettes from CD-ROM

You can install the CD-ROM either as a DOS volume or as a network device.

1. For DOS or Windows, format five high-density diskettes using the DOS FORMAT command. For OS/2, format seven diskettes.

2. (DOS volume only) Install the CD-ROM drive as a DOS device according to manufacturer's instructions:

   • Go to the drive corresponding to the CD-ROM.

   • Change to the CLIENT directory.

   • Skip to Step 4.

3. (Network device only) Map a drive to a server directory containing the NetWare Services files.

   • Change to the SYS:PUBLIC\CLIENT directory.

   • Continue with Step 4.

4. Change to one of the following subdirectories:

   If creating diskettes for	Go to this subdirectory
   DOS	DOSWIN
   Windows	DOSWIN
   OS/2	OS2

    If creating diskettes for   Go to this subdirectory
    DOS                         DOSWIN
    Windows                     DOSWIN
    OS/2                        OS2
   

5. If you are installing a language version other than English (the default language), set the nwlanguage environment variable by typing the following at the workstation command line:

   SET NWLANGUAGE=language
   

   Replace language with the appropriate language found in the NLS subdirectory under either CLIENT\OS2 or CLIENT\DOSWIN.

6. Type

   MAKEDISK drive_letter:
   

   Replace drive_letter with the letter that represents the driver into which you will insert the blank formatted diskettes. For example, type either of the following:

   MAKEDISK A:
   MAKEDISK B:
   

   The MAKEDISK utility copies the client installation files from the CD-ROM directory to the diskettes. It prompts you to insert new empty formatted diskettes.

7. Attach a label to each diskette and label the diskettes as described in ``Client diskette labels''.
