Configuration for the H89-17
I
0-15
SYSTEM SET-UP PROCEDURE
At this point, your H89 computer system should be assembled and the "Rota-
tional Speed Test" in your Operations Manual should have been successfully
completed. Read through the following sections before actually performing any
of the operations.
You will use this section frequently. The first time, however, you will have to
sysgen a diskette. The distribution diskette should only be used to transfer files.
Running a program other than those specified in this procedure will cause
unpredictable results.
Sysgening a diskette will produce your own system volume capable of running
HDOS and other programs. You will probably wish to configure different disk-
ettes for other programs. For now however, follow this procedure to generate a
system volume.
WARNING: If the "Rotational Speed Test" failed, DO NOT attempt to perform
the "System Set-Up Procedure" at this time. Instead, refer to the troubleshooting
guide in your H89 Operations Mrmual.
Power-Up
Use the following method to get your H89 system started from a power-off
condition.
WARNING: DO NOT install a diskette in the drive unit before applying power.
1.
Make sure your unit is "on-line", and apply power to your H89. You
should hear two "beeps", and see an "H:" on the upper left corner of
the console screen.
2.
Install the system (distribution) diskette in your system drive unit. The
label should be facing towards the console screen, on the upper corner
of the diskette. Close the door on the drive unit after you insert the
diskette.
3.
Type a "B" after the "H:" prompt. The monitor will complete the word
"BOOT" for you. Type a § and the H89 will access the ROM.
4.
Perform the "Bootstrap" procedure which follows.
