1456.0. "Trouble with new firmware release" by OFOS01::HEBERTJ () Tue Sep 20 1994 16:25

    Hi,
    
    	I was wondering if anyone else has been having any problems
    installing the new version of the DEChub 900 firmware.
    
    	I used DECnet to copy the files from NETCAD::PROJ$722:[ONEHUB.
    RELEASE.FIRMWARE.V1_1.DOS] (Actually the BACKUP utility so that the
    subdirectories were created) to my system that has PATHWORKS file
    services.  I then copied the files from the file service to my drive
    A with a newly formatted disk in it.  I do a directory on drive A and
    everything looks OK.  The number of files and sizes match the list in
    the directions detailing how to build the diskettes.  When I attempt
    to install the software I pull down the file menu and select run.
    I enter a:\install and things look like they're OK.  When I get
    prompted for the second disk I put it in.  I then keep getting a
    message to place the second diskette in drive A.  Apparently it isn't
    recognizing the second disk.  Again, if I do a directory listing - no
    problem.
    
    	I've reformatted the disk several time and have copied the files
    over several times as well.
    
    	Any suggestions?

You need to label the 2nd diskette "DCF_2" using the file manager's "Disk"
pulldown and select the "Label Disk..." option.

P.S.  I have made a note to eliminate this restriction for the next release.

    Hi Roger,
    
    	That fixed it.  Thanks for the quick response.
