Installing option files
To install the Allied Telesyn option files on your computer's hard
disk, this procedure uses the computer manufacturer's special
"option copy" software and procedures. Typically, the computer
manufacturer will refer to the Allied Telesyn files as "option"
files, which are on the "option disk," the Allied Telesyn
CardAssistant diskette.
1. To copy the option diskette, verify that all floppy disk
drives are empty. Turn the computer ON. In a few seconds,
one of two things happens. Either:
a.
The Configuration Error screen with automatic
configuration prompt appears, because the computer
senses that its hardware has changed since the last
time it was turned ON. In this case, go straight to
Step 2.
Or:
b. The screen displays only a RAM-OK count and an
error number, and stops. In this case, turn the machine
OFF, insert the computer manufacturer's reference
diskette into drive A:, turn the machine ON and go to
Step 2 when you see the automatic configuration
prompt.
