Doing a normal installation

Follow the steps in this section to do what is commonly called a “normal” installation of system software.

If you’re installing system software on a hard disk for the first time, make sure that your hard disk has been initialized, a process that prepares the disk to store information. (You initialize a disk using the Drive Setup program on your hard disk.)

To do a normal installation, follow these steps:

Start up your computer from the Disk Tools disk.

Find and open the Disk First Aid icon.

After Disk First Aid starts, follow the instructions on the screen. Disk First Aid checks your hard disk for any problems.

When Disk First Aid has finished checking your hard disk, choose Quit from the File menu.

Open the Drive Setup program.

You use the Drive Setup program to update your hard disk.

In the list of drives, click your startup disk.

Pull down the Functions menu and choose Update Driver.

When the update process is finished, quit Drive Setup.

Shut down your computer.

Start up your computer from the first system software installer disk you made with Floppy Disk Maker.

The Installer’s Welcome screen appears. You may have to double-click the System Software Installer icon to open the Installer program.
