and your name. Both are case-sensitive! You should have received your
registration key by email and it is most convenient to save that key to a
floppy disk, so you do not have to type it. You can read it from floppy by
pressing Import From File
. After succesful registration, please wait for
the desktopbuild process to finish.
Ready!
This concludes the basic installation of eComStation. Please read on in

Chapter 2: Installation 9
Step by Step: Installing from CD #2:
Before starting the installation, make sure that if you have the FAT32
driver installed under Warp, you remove partfilt.flt from your
config.sys!
When you have booted from the CD you have the following options to
continue the installation:
! press the ESC button on your keyboard, this will invoke the IBM
installer with the IBM IDE driver.
! press D, the IBM installer will be loaded with the Daniela IDE driver.
Please note that this driver will also be used when eComStation has
finished installing. The Daniela driver is a good choice if you have a
large harddisk (more then 8 gigabyte) or a computer with an Ultra
ATA 66 or Ultra ATA 100 controller. You will not have the option for
the Daniela driver if you are booting from diskettes created with
makedisk.cmd, makedisk.bat or ecsmakedisk.exe.
! Other options offered are to enable or disable hardware detection,
please try these if you experience trouble booting from CD#2.
If you have never run the Logical Volume Manager on your system
before, the installer will first start the Volume Conversion Utility (VCU)
which will create compatibility volumes out of your existing partitions.
For more information on volumes, LVM and VCU, refer to Appendix C:
LVM.
A reboot is required to activate the changes. Boot again from floppy or
CD ROM.
You will now get to a textmode screen that welcomes you to the
installer.
If there is no installable volume available, LVM will be shown (Logical
Volume Manager, see Appendix C)
When you create the installation volume, note that if you want to install
Voicetype (speech recognition) later on, you require is 300 MB more
space than is advised during the installation.
If there is already an installable volume available, you can select the
volume to which you want to install.
