[comp.sys.next] Soft PC Questions

mikec@wam.umd.edu (Michael D. Callaghan) (04/09/91)

I just received SoftPC today! I immediately set about installation
procedures. Not having a floppy drive, I turned to my IBM AT which
is on a LAN with my Cube. SoftPC is shipped on two 1.44meg IBM format
disks. No problem, I thought.

Well, I copied the contents of both disks to my shared NeXT hard drive
partition. Guess what! The SoftPC manual says that you should install
from the floppies directly. Hmm...

If I try to run the Installer on the hard drive files, it crashes.
I tried to manually install the files from the shell, but that dies
when you run SoftPC.

Is there anyone on here from Insignia Solutions? I'd like to talk to
someone who can tell me how to do this...


Thanks~
