- Hardware and software requirements -
IBM or compatible PC with 256K RAM
Read More can be run from a hard disk or a floppy disk
(For instructions see below.)
DOS version 3.3 or later
--------------------------------------------------------------------
- Hard Disk Installation -
In the following examples, the directory name MYREALM is used and
the distribution disk is assumed to be in the A: drive. (If you are
creating a new directory, you may name it anything you wish, but the
name's length must not exceed eight characters.)
Note: This program is installable from your A: or B: floppy disk
drive, and it can be installed either to your hard disk or to
another floppy disk.
Option 1 - If you need to create a new directory.
If you have no other My Little Realm programs, you must first create
a new directory for Read More. If you already have one or more MLR
products on your hard disk, even if they are just evaluation
versions, put Read More in the same directory using the instructions
in Option 2.

Step | English directions | DOS commands
---------------------------------------------------------------
1 | go to root directory | CD\ <enter>
2 | make a new directory | MD MYREALM <enter>

4 | run installation program | A:INSTALL <enter>
---------------------------------------------------------------
Option 2 - Using an existing directory.
If you already have an MLR program on your hard disk, registered or
evaluation version, all you need to do is make your existing MLR

- Floppy Drive Installation -
You can install your evaluation program to a floppy drive, as long
as it isn't the same drive that contains the distribution disk.
Assuming the distribution disk is in the A: drive, make the B:
drive your current drive and execute the install program like so:
---------------------------------------------------------------
Step | English directions | DOS commands
---------------------------------------------------------------

2 | run installation program | A:INSTALL <enter>
---------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------
