MDR 1.3 Build 408 Installer Notes:

Follow these steps if you are downloading onto a Windows(TM)-based computer:

1) Download the EXE file MDR1_3b408_Installers.zip (2.5MB).

2) To expand the ZIP file, you will need WinZip(TM) (www.winzip.com) or a similar 
program installed on your computer.  Once downloaded, double-click on the file.  
This will launch WinZip(TM).  

3) Click on the Extract button.  The default "Extract To" directory is normally 
set to to C:\Windows\Temp.  If you prefer to have the files extracted to a different 
location, type the path into the provided text box and then press the "Extract" button. 
Once the extraction is completed, quit WinZip(TM).

4) Locate the two extracted files, labeled MDR1_3b408d1.exe and MDR1_3b408d2.exe,
in the directory you extracted the files to.

5) Label one double sided, high-density 1.44MB freshly PC formatted floppy disk as
"Disk 1", and a second as "Disk 2".

6) Double-click on the first file, MDR1_3b408d1.exe, and you will see a
"WinImage(TM) Self-Extractor" dialog box.

7) Be sure that both "Writing on Floppy" and "Formatting" are checked and click 
on the "OK" button in the upper right corner of the dialog box.

8) When the "Batch Assistant" dialog box appears, insert Disk 1 into drive A:\ and
then click the "OK" button.  If the disk is not blank, you will get an additional
dialog informing you that all data on the disk will be overwritten.  Click "YES".

9) When the WinImage(TM) utility has completed writing to Disk 1, remove Disk 1
and insert Disk 2 and repeat steps 5 through 8 using MDR1_3b408d2.exe instead.
Remove Disk 2 when the operation is complete.  Rebooting your PC with the disk in
can create problems with your PC.

10) With the MDR24/96 powered off, insert installation Disk 1 into the MDR24/96
floppy drive, and power up the MDR24/96.

11) The MDR24/96 will boot into the installer program automatically.  Follow the
prompts on the LCD screen.

12) Insert Disk 2 into the floppy drive when prompted, and select "Continue".

13) When the MDR24/96 has completed reading both installer disks, it will ask you
if you want to install MDR 1.3 Build 408.  Press "OK" to finish the installation,
or "Cancel" to cancel without writing any files to disk.

14) When the installation is complete, remove Disk 2 from the floppy drive and
power cycle the MDR24/96.


Follow these steps if you are downloading onto a Mac OS(TM) computer:

1) Download the self-extracting file: MDR1_3b408_Installers.hqx (3.0MB)

2) To expand the HQX file, you'll need Stuffit Expander(TM)
(http://www.aladdinsys.com).  If Stuffit Expander does not launch automatically at 
the completion of the download, then drag the HQX file onto the Stuffit Expander(TM)
icon.  Stuffit Expander(TM) creates a file called MDR1_3b408_Installers.sea,
and a folder titled MDR1_3b408_Installers.  Drag the SEA file to the trash
can.

3) Launch Apple's Disk Copy utility (you may need to download the Disk Copy
utility from http://www.apple.com. or check the system installations disks that
came with your system).

4) Label one double sided, high density 1.44MB freshly PC formatted floppy disk as
"Disk 1", and a second PC formatted floppy as "Disk 2".

5) Depending on your version of Disk Copy, either click on the "Load Image
File..." button or choose "Make a Floppy" from the Utilities menu.

6) Locate the image folder labeled MDR1_3b408_Installers that was extracted
onto your hard drive, select the MDR1_3b408d1.img file, and click
"Choose".

7) Insert Disk 1 into the floppy drive when prompted. With older versions of Disk
Copy you may need to click on the "Make a copy" button first.

8) Disk Copy will eject the floppy when it has finished making the image. Remove
Disk 1, and repeat steps 5 through 7, using MDR1_3b408d2.img to create
Disk 2.

9) With the MDR24/96 powered off, insert installation Disk 1 into the MDR24/96
floppy drive, and power up the MDR24/96.

10) The MDR24/96 will boot into the installer program automatically. Follow the
prompts on the LCD screen.

11) Insert Disk 2 into the floppy drive when prompted, and select "Continue".

12) When the MDR24/96 has completed reading both installer disks, it will ask you
if you want to install MDR 1.3 Build 408.  Press "OK" to finish the installation,
or "Cancel" to cancel without writing any files to disk.

13) When the installation is complete, remove Disk 2 from the floppy drive and
power cycle the MDR24/96.

**Note to Macintosh USB Floppy drive users:

Apple's Disk Copy program will not work using the above method with a USB floppy
drive because the menu option "Make a Floppy..." will not be available. You must
use Aladdin Systems' ShrinkWrap program available for purchase and trial download
from http://www.aladdinsys.com/shrinkwrap/index.html. Once you have ShrinkWrap
installed substitute these steps for steps 3-8 in the above directions.

3) Launch ShrinkWrap.

4) Label one double sided, high density 1.44MB freshly PC formatted floppy disk as
"Disk 1", and a second PC formatted floppy as "Disk 2".

5) Select "Write Image back to Disk..." from the Image menu (command-B).

6) Locate the image folder labeled MDR1_3b408_Installers that was extracted
onto your hard drive, select the MDR1_3b408d1.img file, and click
"Select".

7) Insert Disk 1 into the floppy drive when prompted.

8) ShrinkWrap will eject the floppy when it has finished making the image. Remove
Disk 1, and repeat steps 5 through 7, using MDR1_3b408d2.img to create
Disk 2.
