			ABOUT THIS DIRECTORY

This directory contains files used in building an installation/boot
diskette.  This diskette is required in order to install IBM Academic
Operating System 4.3 on the IBM Academic System workstation.

In order to make an installation/boot diskette, you first need to make
/sys/standatr/sautil.out and a miniroot kernel:

	1> cd /sys/dist_atr; make MINIROOT

The next step is to create a filesystem image.  You can do this on the
Academic System workstation with the command:

	2> cd /sys/dist_atr; make fsimage.bin

or you can do this on an IBM RT PC workstation with the command:

	2> cd /sys/dist_atr; make fsimage.bin DEVICE=/dev/xxxx

where /dev/xxxx is an EXPENDABLE disk partition with at least 1.4 Meg.
If you want to create a filesystem image with a local /etc/hosts,
use the command:

	2> cd /sys/dist_atr; make fsimage.bin LOCAL=-local

on an Academic System workstation.  On an RT, use the command:

	2> cd /sys/dist_atr; make fsimage.bin DEVICE=/dev/xxxx LOCAL=-local

Finally, create the diskette:

	3> cd /sys/dist_atr; make diskette

Note that you must have first compiled and installed a copy of unix.exe
into this directory before you can successfully "make diskette".

For more information, see /sys/dist/README.  The Makefile and scripts
in this directory use the Makefile and scripts in /sys/dist
extensively to avoid duplication of code.
