Installing CD Software onto the Server(s) 43 The installation script will not install any software onto your system until after all responses are entered. The last prompt will tell you when the installation is ready to proceed. Up until then, you can abort the installation safely by using the interrupt character (or by typing "q" for the yes/no prompts) for text mode or pressing the Cancel button for GUI mode. Text mode will abort immediately; GUI mode will ask for confirmation. Although the procedures are similar for text and GUI modes, the following descriptions are provided individually for each mode since the user will only be installing in one mode on any one server. By default, all installed software will be placed in a subdirectory of the /T1500 directory (which can be created beforehand as a symbolic link, if desired). The first location prompt will allow you to specify a new default. In picking the default, however, be aware that some BOOTP servers restrict you to a total of 64 bytes of options, so the root directory path must be short. If TFTP is configured on your server, the value given for its default will override your selected default for that one response, but you can change the directory, overriding the default (you will then need to fix the /etc/inetd.conf or equivalent file, as well). For Windows installation, the default is c:/T1500. Note If installing or upgrading and a prior release is on the system, it is recommended that you use the same servers and directories for the new release that were used for the old one. Text-Mode Installation The installation program output has been formatted for a screen of at least 24 lines by 80 columns. The installation consists of three types of operations: 1. You are asked which of the items on the CD you want installed on this server. 2. You are asked for file and/or directory names for the destination. Note Be careful not to overwrite installations for terminals using prior software releases 3. The files are installed in the appropriate places.

Installing CD Software onto the Server(s)
43
The installation script will not install any software onto your system until after all
responses are entered. The last prompt will tell you when the installation is ready to
proceed. Up until then, you can abort the installation safely by using the interrupt
character (or by typing °
q
± for the
yes
/
no
prompts) for text mode or pressing the
Cancel
button for GUI mode. Text mode will abort immediately; GUI mode will ask
for confirmation.
Although the procedures are similar for text and GUI modes, the following
descriptions are provided individually for each mode since the user will only be
installing in one mode on any one server.
By default, all installed software will be placed in a subdirectory of the
/T1500
directory (which can be created beforehand as a symbolic link, if desired). The first
location prompt will allow you to specify a new default. In picking the default,
however, be aware that some BOOTP servers restrict you to a total of 64 bytes of
options, so the root directory path must be short. If TFTP is configured on your
server, the value given for its default will override your selected default for that one
response, but you can change the directory, overriding the default (you will then
need to fix the
/etc/inetd.conf
or equivalent file, as well). For Windows
installation, the default is
c:/T1500
.
Note
If installing or upgrading and a prior release is on the
system, it is recommended that you use the same
servers and directories for the new release that were
used for the old one.
Text-Mode Installation
The installation program output has been formatted for a screen of at least 24 lines
by 80 columns. The installation consists of three types of operations:
1.
You are asked which of the items on the CD you want installed on this server.
2.
You are asked for file and/or directory names for the destination.
Note
Be careful not to overwrite installations for terminals
using prior software releases
3.
The files are installed in the appropriate places.
