- RUNNING DELPHI FROM THE CD-ROM
- ------------------------------
-
- Delphi can be run from a CD-ROM directly. However, it is highly
- recommended that at least a minimum installatiion be seriously
- considered before opting for running Delphi from CD-ROM.
-
- For a minimum installation, 33MB of available hard disk space is
- required.
-
- Running from a CD-ROM, 9MB of available hard disk space is
- required.
-
- To configure the system to run Delphi from the CD-ROM,
-
- 1. Copy all files found in the CD's \RUNIMAGE\WINDOWS directory to the
- Windows directory of the hard disk.
-
- 2. Copy all files found in the CD's \RUNIMAGE\WINDOWS\SYSTEM
- directory to the Windows SYSTEM directory of the hard disk.
-
- 3. Edit DELPHI.INI in a text editor like Windows Notepad. Look
- for the section titled [Globals]. Make entry for the PrivateDir
- setting that resides on a writeable disk, preferably a local
- hard disk.
-
- For instance, if a directory on the C: drive where chosen called
- DELPRIV, the relevant section of DELPHI.INI would look as
- follows.
-
- [Globals]
- PrivateDir=C:\DELPRIV\
-
- Now, Delphi can be run from the \RUNIMAGE\DELPHI\BIN directory
- of the CD-ROM.
