This installation guide describes how to:

o  Use EZStart to copy the DEC PATHWORKS version 4.1 for DOS 
   NDIS driver files from the SuperDisk to your PC.

o  Prepare your operating system so you can attach to the network.

Note: This driver supports all 8216 (Ultra), 80xx (Elite),  
      80xx (PLUS), and 8416 (EtherEZ) Series ISA, EISA, and Micro
      Channel Ethernet adapters.


COPYING THE DRIVER FILES

From the Driver Installation screen, select 'Copy Files' to copy all 
the files used by this driver from the SuperDisk to the Destination
Directory recommended by EZStart, or to a different directory that 
you specify.

   computer's disk drive.

   'N(o)' if you do not have this type of keyboard.

5. Select the DECNET option and press Enter.

6. Insert the DNET TRNSPRT 1 diskette into your computer's disk drive.

7. Specify the destination drive letter.

   diskette' appears, select N(o).

9. Type the node name and address. 

10. Press Enter.

    copied the driver (default is C:\DECNET). Then rename this file
    to PROTOCOL.DEC. Then rename the DEC41DOS.INI (located in the
    same subdirectory as the file you just renamed) to PROTOCOL.INI.

22. Using any text editor, edit the CONFIG.SYS file by replacing 
    the line:

        device=\DECNET\MACWD.DOS

    with this line:

        device=\DECNET\SMC8000.DOS

23. Make sure the ni_irq value in the [DATALINK] section matches 
    the irq value of the network adapter specified in the 
    PROTOCOL.INI file.
