1. Format one or three 3½-inch 1.44MB diskettes for MS-DOS version 5.0, and
make one bootable. To do this, insert the diskette into drive A and, at the DOS
prompt, type
format /s [Enter]
. The remaining diskettes of a three-disk set do not
need to be bootable, so they can be formatted by typing
format [Enter]
.
2. Label the diskette(s) as noted at the beginning of this section.
3. Press

or

are the equivalents of drives A and B.
7. When prompted, insert the Node Update Disk, System Disk 1, or Boot Disk and

[Enter]
. If creating a Node Update Disk or Boot Disk, go to step 9. If creating
an installation set, go to step 8.

6–8 minutes to copy the necessary files.)
9. When the operation is finished, press any key (when prompted) to return to the
Node Operations Menu.
10. Remove the diskette from the drive and label each disk with identifying infor-
mation such as the node number and software release number.

and press
[Ctrl] [Alt] [Del]
to reboot.
