To install ProWesS, you need to select the destination for the installation. The installation program will suggest the use of win1_pws_ which is suitable for harddisk installation. If you want to install ProWesS on a disk, then you should insert a formatted disk in flp2_ and also change the destination to flp2_pws_.
After this, you have to indicate which parts of the installation process should be executed. To start installation, you always need the base installation. Afterwards, you should at least install one printer driver (unless you never want to print anything).
Some guidelines for installation, depending on the medium :
This is the easier installation there is. You can change the default directory in which ProWesS should be put, and then you just have to indicate the options you want to install (at least base and probably a suitable printer driver). You probably also need to build a boot file. If you don't need other extensions, then the boot file built by the installation procedure will suffice. Otherwise, you will have to modify that boot file to load all the extra stuff you need.
What yopu should do here is mimic the availability of a harddisk. This means that you normally have everything installed on a formatted disk in flp2_. That disk should always stay there (although it may sometimes be replaced by a disk which contains fonts etc.) and will have to be available all the time after booting (because the fonts and some of the programs and data file are occasionally loaded).
The boot file will have to be written on a separate disk on which you can also put other extensions etc. that you load. (see also)
To install ProWesS on DD disks, you have to indicate the DD installation option in the ProWesS installation menu. This version will install ProWesS to two disks. The disks should be formatted before you start installation. The DD installation always expects the source (ProWesS) disks to be in flp1_, and flp2_ is the destination.
The two disks both have a specific meaning. The procedure will build a boot disk and a resident disk. The resident disk should always be in flp2_ while using ProWesS applications. This is necessary to find fonts and some other auxiliary files. However, sometimes (just for a short while) you can insert another disk in flp2_, e.g. when loading fonts). Obviously, to boot ProWesS, the boot disk should be in flp1_ as well (but this disk can be removed after booting).
Apart from this, the installation is quite straightforward. You can choose whether the documentation should be copied to your resident disk. You also get the option to install Qpac2 and the PROforma fontpack. The installation procedure will ask you when to change disks or make sure that a certain disk is in the drive.
