Note: If the program detects previously installed files that are newer than the versions contained in the package, it asks you whether to install or skip the files in question. Typically, you should NOT overwrite newer files.

a:\installThe installation program starts up, and displays its welcome and information screens. It then prompts you for a destination drive.
If the installation program detects previously installed files that are newer than the versions contained in the package, it asks you whether to install or skip the files in question. Typically, you should NOT overwrite newer files.
When the installation program finishes copying files, it displays a list of changes to make to your config.sys file. It outputs the file config.agx containing these changes. config.agx is stored in the root directory of the drive on which the software is being installed.
Figure 16. Lines to Change in config.sysThe syntax of the
set AGCX= line is as follows:set AGCX={!}[m|a]:addr,addr,addr,addr...where:
m is mu-law, a is a-law (choose one only).
set AGCX= statement in config.sys to reflect your changes.
mount -f cdfs -r /dev/cdrom/devicename mountpoint...where devicename is the device name of the CD-ROM, and mountpoint is the mount point directory. For example, for UnixWare 2.1.x, you might enter:
mount -f cdfs -r /dev/cdrom/c1b0t3l0 /CD-ROM_1For UnixWare 7, you might enter:
mount -f cdfs -r /dev/cdrom/cdrom1 /CD-ROM_1

You will now provide the base addresses of the agcx
Boards you are installing in your system. When you are prompted for
a base address, a list of possible choices will be given.
If installing more than one board into your system,
the choices already selected during this installation will be
marked, and the device node name that will be used to access the
agcx board is listed.
Enter c to continue or enter q to quit:
For example, if you select address 0x0640 first and then address 0x2140, the board at address 0x0640 is assigned device number 0. The board at address 0x2140 is assigned device number 1.
For more information on setting the I/O addresses, see Chapter 2.

As you select addresses, make a note of the order in which you select them. The install program assigns device numbers to your boards based on the order in which they are selected. When you create your AG Connect application, you will use these numbers to refer to your boards in software.
For example, if you mark address 0x0640 first and then address 0x2140, the board at address 0x0640 is assigned device number 0. The board at address 0x2140 is assigned device number 1.

Rebuild the kernel with the AG Connect Board device driver now? (y/n)
Do you want this kernel to boot by default? (y/n)
Note: pkgadd may warn you that it is about to overwrite newer versions of files on your system with older ones. This warning may appear even if the files you are installing are actually newer than the ones on your system. This is because files installed with earlier versions of the install script were marked with the installation date, not their creation dates. Later versions of the script preserve the creation date.
