Custom Installation
Custom installation is for knowledgeable network users who
need to use different configuration settings or change test
sequences for automated installations. This option is for network
administrators, MIS departments, and value-added resellers (VARs)
who need to automate the installation process. Custom
installation also enables you to save the configuration settings
and test options that you select during the installation for use in
future installations.
Custom installation loads the latest drivers from the EtherDisk
diskette, automatically tests the NIC and your network, and
configures TCP/IP (dynamic or static address). The Custom option
also allows you to change configuration settings, disable tests,
and save installation settings for future installations.
If you are installing the NIC in a Windows 95 PC that does not
have a Plug and Play BIOS installed, you must install the NIC using
the Custom installation option.

For Windows NT—Follow the procedure "Installing Multiple
