IRIX 6.5.2 Installation Tools and Overlays, August '98 README
|
|
Silicon Graphics, Inc.
|
|
--------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
This CD contains the miniroot and other components necessary to boot
|
|
the system into the basic installation environment for operating
|
|
system installs and upgrades. It also contains a set of documentation
|
|
called "Customer Welcome, August '98".
|
|
|
|
Important
|
|
---------
|
|
Before upgrading to IRIX 6.5.2
|
|
|
|
You must read the "Start Here" section of the documentation contained
|
|
in the Customer Welcome. When upgrading from a release prior to IRIX
|
|
6.5, it is extremely important to insert all applicable IRIX 6.5 CDROMs
|
|
(or open all network distribution directories) as well as the 6.5.2
|
|
CDROMs, before issuing any "keep" or "install" commands. If this
|
|
is not done, many conflicts will have to be resolved manually.
|
|
|
|
To view the Start Here pages:
|
|
1. Insert the Installation Tools and Overlays CD 1-of-2 August '98
|
|
into the CD-ROM drive.
|
|
2. Open a Web browser and go to:
|
|
file:/CDROM/WhatsNew/yourSystem.html
|
|
3. Click the "Start Here" link.
|
|
|
|
Startup Script
|
|
--------------
|
|
This Installation Tools CD provides a script to help you prepare for
|
|
installation. This script checks for old kernel files and large files
|
|
you may no longer need and, with your approval, removes them.
|
|
|
|
Silicon Graphics strongly recommends that you run the startup script.

|
|
