The author's instructions
Installation
The program INSTALL.EXE is on the FLODRAW Library Disk. INSTALL guides the
installation or upgrade of FLODRAW 2.2. It is a series of menus and prompts
that will copy the FLODRAW files from the distribution disks to your system.
The following procedure tells you how to start the INSTALL process.
1. If you are upgrading your FLODRAW system, or you are installing
FLODRAW on a hard disk system, you are ready to start the
installation at step 3.
2. If you are installing on a floppy system, you will need two blank
formatted disks, one for your program disk and one for your library
disk. If you have not reviewed the sample diagrams, you will need
another disk for the sample diagrams. If your floppy drive is a 720k
drive, you will have enough room to combine your program disk and
library disk on one floppy disk.
3. Boot your system, then put the FLODRAW Library Disk in drive A.
4. Type A:INSTALL at the DOS prompt.
5. Now, follow the prompts from the install program.
6. At the completion of the install program, all FLODRAW files have
been copied to your system.
Special Installation for Single Floppy Systems
The INSTALL program was designed to install FLODRAW on a hard disk system or
a floppy system with at least two floppy disks. If you have a floppy system
with only one floppy disk, use the following procedure to install FLODRAW on
your system. This requires a lot of disk swapping, so it's important to pay
attention to the prompts from DOS while the copy function is in process.
If your floppy drive is a 3.5 inch (720k) drive, you will have enough room
