                            Installation

The ST-INSTAL program copies all of the SY-TOS utilities to a user
specified disk and directory.

Before installing the SY-TOS software, insert the SY-TOS diskette into
drive A and use the DOS command DIR to determine if a README.BAT file is
present on the diskette.  This is a batch file containing additional
information that was not included in this manual.  If the file exists, you
should review its contents before continuing with the SY-TOS installation.

To review the README file, insert the SY-TOS diskette into drive A.

At the DOS command prompt, type A: and press <ENTER>.

Type the following:

A:\README <ENTER>

You can also print the file by directing it to the printer.  For example:

A:\>TYPE README.BAT >> PRN <ENTER>

NOTE:  Before installing SY-TOS, we recommend you use the DOS command
       CHKDSK.  This command checks the directories and File Allocation
       Table (FAT) for any errors.  Refer to your operating system's
       manual for more information on the CHKDSK command.

STARTING THE ST-INSTAL PROGRAM

Insert the SY-TOS diskette into drive A.

At the DOS command prompt, type A: and press <ENTER>

Type STINSTAL and press <ENTER>

Follow the instructions that appear on the screen.  ST-INSTAL will prompt
you through the installation process.

NOTE:  The README.BAT file is not copied to disk during the installation
       process.  Use the DOS COPY command if you want to copy this file to
       your hard disk.

Responding to ST-INSTAL's Questions

ST-INSTAL prompts you for the hard disk where you want to install SY-TOS.

Type the disk letter and press <ENTER>

To accept the disk letter displayed on the screen, simply press <ENTER>.

ST-INSTAL next prompts you for the directory where you want ST-INSTAL to
place the SY-TOS files.  If the directory doe snot exist, ST-INSTAL will
create it for you.

Type the directory where you want SY-TOS files to reside and press <ENTER>

To install SY-TOS in the root directory, simply press <ENTER>.

ST-INSTAL will display a confirmation prompt before copying the SY-TOS
files to the specified disk and directory.

COMPLETING THE INSTALLATION OF SY-TOS

ST-INSTAL copies the SY-TOS utilities and other files necessary to run SY-
TOS to the specified disk and directory.

SY-TOS informs you when the installation is complete and returns you to the
DOS command prompt on the disk and in the directory where SY-TOS is
installed.

Before executing SY-TOS, you must edit the CONFIG.SYS file to include the
BUFFERS and FILES statements if they do not already exist.  The values for
these statements must be set to at least 20 (for example, BUFFERS=20).

After editing the CONFIG.SYS files, you must reboot the system in order for
new values to take effect.
