The basic Hands On Remote Access package is setup so it can be
installed from three 360K disks, one 1.44/1.2M floppy disk, a
hard drive, or indirectly from a BBS/internet. The diskette
form is a series of .ZIP files, the installation files and
FILE_ID.DIZ. The BBS version is one ZIP file including the
installation files. Normally just run the INSTALL.EXE
program.
Diskette setup:
------------------------------------------------------------
HO51.ZIP portions of the product, including the manuals,
VENDOR.DOC, FILE_ID.DIZ, and the like. (disk 1)
------------------------------------------------------------
HO52.ZIP portions of the product (disk 2)
------------------------------------------------------------
HO53.ZIP portions of the product (disk 3)
------------------------------------------------------------
Just to confirm: 360K diskettes are setup with the
installation files and HO51.ZIP on disk 1, HO52.ZIP on disk 2,
and HO53.ZIP on disk 3. 1.2 Meg and 1.44 Meg disks combine
them all on one disk.
Please note that over 95% of our support calls, between July
and September 1994 (after the initial widespread release of
version 5.00) involve people who have incomplete copies of
Hands On. Our response is to 'shrink' the default BBS
distribution and to put 'extras' on additional disks and
'other' locations like Compuserve. This means that you will
repeatedly read of software that may not be present, but it
also means that we have included the necessary core materials
to get you going.
The BBS form includes everything in one HO5x.ZIP file, with
HANDS ON BBS.DOC manual Page 2
the x denoting the release month. For example, HO5S.ZIP is a
September release, and HO5O.zip is an October release. If you
come across a HO5sX.ZIP file it will be the default September
release plus the 'extras' in the same file, and will be the
complete set.
Some BBS's will carry the 'extra's file HO5X.ZIP where the X
means eXtras. This file will include the extra material not
included in the default distribution. If you are missing the
'extras' and decide that you need it, you can check BBS's or
you might also contact disk vendors to see if they carry the
full set.
