Installation Instructions:

The user will need three (3) blank, formatted, high density
diskettes to create the new Personal NetWare installation disk
set.  The user can create a 3.5" or 5.25" Personal NetWare
installation disk set.  The disks MUST have all of the disk space
available.

 Download or place the D72PNW.EXE file in to a unique directory,
i.e. TEMP, and then run the D72PNW executable to extract its
contents.  The user then runs the CREATE batch file to create the
Personal NetWare installation disk set.  The CREATE batch file
requires source and destination drive letters be specified.

 USAGE:  CREATE (source): (destination):

 EXAMPLE: The A: floppy disk drive is a 3.5" high density drive
and is the drive from which the Novell DOS 7 diskettes will be
read.  The user wishes to create a 3.5" high density Personal
NetWare installation disk set also in the A: floppy disk drive. 
The user would enter:

      CREATE A: A:

 Or, the A: floppy disk drive is a 3.5" high density drive and is
the drive from which the Novell DOS 7 diskettes will be read. 
The user wishes to create a 5 1/4" high density Personal NetWare
installation disk set in the B: floppy disk drive.  The user
would enter:

      CREATE A: B:

 The CREATE batch routine will create three temporary
directories, DISK1, DISK2, and DISK3 below the current directory. 
Personal NetWare files will be copied off of the Novell DOS 7
installation diskettes and placed in the appropriate disk
directory.  Then CREATE will copy the contents of the DISKx
directories to three diskettes in the specified destination drive
letter.

 If the files have been read off of the Novell DOS 7 diskettes
and the 3 temporary directories created, and, the user wishes to
only create the new Personal NetWare installation disk set, the
user can us SKIP to skip the reading of files off of the Novell
DOS 7 disks.  The user would enter:

      CREATE SKIP (destination):

 After the new Personal NetWare installation disk set is created,
CREATE will remove the three temporary directories by using one
of three methods:
 1. Using the Novell DOS 7 XDEL.EXE. 
 2. Using the MSDOS 6 DELTREE.EXE.
 3. Using the basic DOS DEL and RD commands.  If the basic DOS
DEL and RD
 command method is used, DOS will prompt the user "are you sure?"
when the
 DEL *.* command is issued.  The user should answer Y to these
prompts.

 If the files have been read off of the Novell DOS 7 diskettes
and the 3 temporary directories created, and the user wishes to
delete the download and temporary directories without creating
the Personal NetWare disk set, the user would enter:

      CREATE DELETE

 The user can break out of the CREATE batch routine at any time
by pressing "ctrl" "C" and answering "Y" to the prompt.
