Installing the UNIX Operating System
The UNIX Operating System V/386 Release 3.2.2 must be installed
(or re-installed) before any other software packages can be loaded. To install
the UNIX operating system, follow these steps:
1 Insert diskette 1 of the Base System Package of the UNIX Operating
System V/386 Release 3.2.2 Foundation Set into the disk drive.
2 Press the button if the system is on, or turn the system on.
Resident diagnostics are run on the hardware and the results
(PASS or FAIL) are indicated on the monitor.
If resident diagnostics fail at any time, remove the diskette. Insert the
Customer Diagnostics (or Customer Test) diskette for a more specific
hardware check on the device that failed and perform the recommended
corrective actions. The Customer Diagnostics diskette is provided in the
back of the AT&T
WGS User’s Guide
for your machine. When the
problem is corrected, restart the procedure for loading the
UNIX Operating System.
When diagnostics are completed, the software on diskette 1 will be run.
Diskette 1 is used to prepare the computer for the UNIX Operating
System environment by partitioning and reformatting the hard disk.
Wait for the following prompt to display:
Strike ENTER to install the UNIX System on your hard disk.
3 Press [Enter] to proceed with the installation.
The system prompts you with the message:
Is this a new installation or a release upgrade to your
existing system?
(Strike ‘n’ (new) or ‘u’ (upgrade) followed
by ENTER)
4 Type n and press [Enter].
The system prompts you with the message:
WARNING: A new installation of the UNIX System will destroy
all files currently on the system.
Do you wish to continue
