Installation Instructions
==========================

You will need a formatted 3 1/2 inch floppy diskette for the following
procedure. Download the file xxx.tar.gz to a temporary directory.

Extract the file to the floppy disk as follows:

1. On a Linux system:

Type the following commands under a Linux command shell:
mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy

tar xvzf (full path to the archive) -C /mnt/floppy
(Eg: /temp/xxxx.tar.gz)
umount /mnt/floppy

2. On a Windows system:

Use a utility such as Winzip to extract the contents to a diskette.

NOTE: For Winzip, you will have to uncheck the "TAR file smart CR/LF
conversion" option under:

Options->Configuration->Miscellaneous

for the extraction to work correctly.

On the target system, mount the floppy created above as follows:
