This file describes the procedures for installing the FileStar/2 Demonstration application. If you have any problems with the installation or other use of FileStar/2, please use the web site, www.filestar.com, for resolution and support. _________________________________________________________________ BASE FILES AND FILENAME CONVENTION When you download the application from an Internet server, you will have one file named FS21DEMO.EXE. This is a self-extracting executable zip file which contains a compressed file, the installation program files and this text file. FS21DEMO.EXE contains: F2199306.001 - Compressed distribution file SHSINST.EXE - SHS InstallStar installation program SHSINST.HLP - Installation program help file SHSINST.INF - Installation program information file INSTALL.TXT - This file. - F21 is major/minor version, 99306 is last 5 digits of level. _________________________________________________________________ BASE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 1. If you are installing from an Internet download, run the self-extracting zip file FS21DEMO.EXE. When completed you should have the files listed above in the current directory. 2. Open an OS/2 window. If you are installing from a CD or floppy disk change to the root directory of that drive. 3. You may start the install program with or without the compressed file as a parameter. The F2199306.001 file is the compressed file that contains all other files and installation definitions. (a) If you start the installation program with a command of 'SHSINST F2199306.001' you will bypass the Source Directory dialog. (b) If you start with 'SHSINST' the Source Directory dialog will appear. Press the browse button and double click the F2199306.001 file. This will complete the source path in the dialog. 3. Press the 'License' button (required to enable the Install button) and read the License. When finished with reading the licence, you may read the README.1ST file by pressing the 'Readme' button. 4. Press the 'Install' button to start the installation. A Target Directory dialog will appear. The Target Directory dialog entry field should be displaying a directory FILESTAR on the boot drive. You may change the drive/directory manually or use the Browse button to select the target directory. It will be created during install if it does not exist. Press Ok to accept the target directory as entered and the extraction of files will begin. 5. Normal installation creates a Desktop folder named 'FS Demo'. The folder contains the executables for FileStar/2 and InstallStar. 6. InstallStar online help is available by pressing the F1 key or the 'Help' pushbutton. _________________________________________________________________ UNINSTALL To uninstall the demostration program, simply delete the directory in which it installed. The program does not write to the OS2.INI or config.sys files and is completely contained in its own directory. _________________________________________________________________ INFOZIP UTILITIES InfoZIP has graciously allowed the inclusion of ZIP.EXE and UNZIP.EXE with the FileStar/2 product. These programs are provided at no cost to the user as a service. It is very likely that you already have these fine native OS/2 archiving utilities. InfoZIP products are widely available on the internet. For a list of InfoZIP sources, read the WHERE file. You will also find a link to the latest versions on www.filestar.com. The ZIP.DOC and UNZIP.DOC files are included to provide documentation for the InfoZIP products. FileStar/2 makes extensive use of the Zip and Unzip programs. It is recommended that you add the path to these programs to the config.sys path statement so that one copy of the files are available to all programs that use them. Enjoy!
