1708.0. "DEFPA driver install failure" by VAXRIO::NIS_ARRONQUE () Tue Jun 06 1995 10:34

    May someone help me with a stranger (or may be my fault) situation??
    
    I'm made a network copy of driver to DEFPA, did a PKUNZIP, put a volume 
    label (DISK 1), but when I tried to install from Windows NT Network
    configuration , a got the following  message: 
    Insert the  disk labeled "disk 1" on drive A: 
    
    Can someone tell me where I'm wrong, I'm not a Windows NT expertise.       
    
    Thanks in advanced.

    That's OK.  We all need to start someplace.
    
    Here are the steps:
    
    	1. Pull down the latest DEFPA driver kit (FPKIT241.ZIP) from
    	   KALI::PCDRIVERS:[DEFPA.INTERIM]FPKIT241.ZIP.
    
        2. Enter "PKUNZIP -d FPKIT241.ZIP A:\" to extract the files and
           subdirectories to a *BLANK* formatted floppy.
    
    	3. Under Control Panel/Network Settings make sure that you don't
           have any FDDI PCI adapters listed as being installed.
    
    	4. Select "Add Adapter", then scroll down to the bottom and
           select "Other...".
    
    	5. Pop in the floppy from Step 2, then press Enter.
    
    	6. Accept the default settings, follow the remaining steps
           and reboot when prompted.
    
    "disk 1" is actually a file that is needed and can be found in the top
    level directory of the FPKIT241.ZIP kit.  The actual diskette label or
    volume label is not important.
