tar xvf bcme-<version>.tar.

3Create a package on a diskette, where the package can be installed on the same system or other systems, using:

pkgtrans -s <path> diskette1

where <path> is the directory where the TAR file was untarred in step 2.

4Directly install the package on the same system, using: pkgadd -d <path>

where <path> is the directory where the TAR file was untarred in step 2.
