Installing from Diskette

To install a UnixWare client using a diskette, you must first create the installation diskette, then follow the installation procedure using the files on the diskette. You will need one formatted high-density diskette.

1.Become super-user (root): su

Enter the root password when prompted.

2.Insert the Telephony Services CD-ROM into your workstation CD-ROM drive.

3.At the command prompt, mount the CD-ROM. The mount command format is as follows:

mount -F cdfs -r /dev/cdrom/device /mountpoint

where device specifies the CD-ROM drive that contains the Telephony Services installation disk and mountpoint is the name of an existing directory (such as / cdrom1 or /CD-ROM_1) on which to mount the CD-ROM. You can use the ls command to find the appropriate names for your system.

Note:

Desktop users may find it easier to mount the CD-ROM by double-clicking on the CD-ROM icon in the "Disks-etc" folder.

4.Change to the UnixWare client software directory.

cd /mountpoint/client/tsapi/unixware <Enter>

5.Insert an empty formatted diskette into the drive. Copy the package file using the following command:

cat nwtslib.spl >/dev/fd0 <Enter>

6.Leave the unixware directory. cd / <Enter>

7.Unmount the CD-ROM.

The umount command format is as follows:

umount /dev/cdrom/device

where device specifies the CD-ROM drive that contains the Telephony Services installation disk. You may now remove the CD-ROM.

8.Remove the diskette from the drive. Attach a label to the diskette and write the following information on it:
