Installing Fixpaks from a local Hard Drive using the RSU ZIP files.

What you Need

A copy of FastKick updated for CSF141
The diskette ZIP files for the Fixpak
A copy of InfoZip's UNZIP.EXE

Step by Step Instructions

1.You'll need FastKick141.zip

2.You'll also need InfoZip's UNZIP Utility

3.Using whatever method of FTP you are comfortable with, go to:
service.software.ibm.com/ps/products/os2/rsu/xr_m011
and, using BINary mode, get all the files in that directory (with the exception of ftpinstl.zip).

4.Create a directory to hold the files and the installation utility

5.Unzip FASTKICK.ZIP to this directory

6.Copy all of the ZIP files that you FTP'd from the XR_M011 directory to this same directory.

7.Copy the InfoZip self-extracting executable to an empty directory, and run the executable.

8.Copy UNZIP.EXE from this directory to the directory where you have stored the FastKick files and the XR_M011*.ZIP files

9.Open an OS/2 Command Prompt (window or full screen) and Change to that Directory.

10.Type the following command at the OS/2 prompt:

for %1 in (xr_m011*.zip) do unzip -o %1

You'll need to add a "-d" after "-o" if you are using a version of unzip older than the one linked above

11.Again, from the OS/2 Command prompt, run FIX.CMD.

That's all there is to it. Follow the onscreen prompts, and perform a shutdown and re-boot when the installation has completed.
