This chapter explains the installation of the new OS-9 release on a

harddisk.

2.1 Booting from Floppy Disk

After power-up, the EUROCOM-17 prompts with its monitor program.

All commands described in the RMon manual are ready to be used. Insert

disk labeled ‘OS9 Bootdisk’ into drive0 if you wish to boot from floppy.

If you ordered a system with harddisk, the whole operating system and the

boot file are installed on the harddisk by ELTEC. In this case skip the

steps1 to 4 and boot directly.

In the following items enclosed in " " are monitor prompts. Your response

are enclosed in ' '.

The description of the set command refers to RMon Version 2.0.

The answers to the prompts given below correspond to the OS-9 as

delivered by ELTEC. Selecting other SCSI IDs or LUNs means that you

first have to configure your own corresponding OS-9 system.
