a
copy-protected application diskette bootable,
follow this procedure.
1.
Remove the write-protect tab from the application diskette.
2.

a
two-drive
system, insert your application diskette in Drive

are
prompted to switch diskettes

MS-DOS Installation
for
DeskMate
To allow for more data space, your DeskMate diskette is not a
bootable diskette. You can boot
(start
up) your system with your
MS-DOS diskette and then insert the DeskMate diskette to execute
the program. For extra convenience, you can make
a
bootable
DeskMate diskette by following these instructions.
Notes:
This procedure reduces usable disk space from
52224
bytes to
12288
bytes.
Do not use this procedure if your printer requires LPINST.
(See “Printer Configuration Instructions.”) In this case, you
must boot your system using the MS-DOS diskette.
