- 2.4 _P_r_e_r_e_q_u_i_s_i_t_e_s
-
- Your workstation must be running at least release IRIX 5.3
- or IRIX 6.1 in order to use Release 2.0 of this product.
- IRIX 5.2 and 6.0 will not install this version.
- SoftWindows2 is no longer supported on processors predating
- the R4000.
-
- 2.5 _C_o_m_p_a_t_i_b_i_l_i_t_y
-
- SoftWindows 2.0 uses a different scheme than previous
- versions of SoftWindows to store the C: drive container
- file. If users are upgrading from a previous version of
- SoftWindows, then an upgraded version of their current
- container file will be created in their home directory.
- This updated container file will be named WIN311-
- <username>.hdf. Users who upgrade their container file will
- be given the option of deleting their old container file to
- conserve space.
-
- 2.6 _C_o_n_f_i_g_u_r_a_t_i_o_n__F_i_l_e_s
-
- This section lists installed files that can be edited to
- contain site-specific changes.
-
- SoftWindows2 maintains a system configuration file
- /_u_s_r/_l_i_b/_S_o_f_t_W_i_n_d_o_w_s_2/_s_y_s._s_w_i_n_2_c_o_n_f_i_g. This file can be
- used to effect the operational behavior of all users running
- SoftWindows2 on the system.
-
- The file /_u_s_r/_l_i_b/_S_o_f_t_W_i_n_d_o_w_s_2/_s_w_i_n__h_i_n_t_s__v_i_e_w_e_d contains a
- list of users that have seen the swin_hints file. If the
- swin_hints file is changed, you can empty the viewed file so
- that users will see the new swin_hints the next time they
- run SoftWindows2
-
- 2.7 _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_i_n_g__F_r_e_n_c_h__a_n_d__G_e_r_m_a_n__v_e_r_s_i_o_n_s

- _s_y_s._d_i_s_k_d_a_t_a._f_r_n to _s_y_s._d_i_s_k_d_a_t_a, or for the German
- installation, move _s_y_s._d_i_s_k_d_a_t_a._g_e_r to _s_y_s._d_i_s_k_d_a_t_a.
- 8. Rename _w_i_n_d_o_w_s._f_r_n (or _w_i_n_d_o_w_s._g_e_r for the German
- version) to _w_i_n_d_o_w_s.
- 9. If you have a hard drive file (.hdf file) in your home
- directory named _W_I_N_3_1_1-<_u_s_e_r_n_a_m_e>._h_d_f, rename it to
