GEM Binary DIstribution Robert Avis June 1999 This directory contains the disk images for the commercial distribution of GEM 1.2.(The best version!!) To make a disk set, execute the file gem12make.com. This will require 4 disks, of any density above 330kb. If this fails, manually unzip the files gm12dsk1.zip to gm12dsk4.zip inclusive to disks. Label disks (physically) as follows (this will be useful during setup): DISK1 GEM System Master Disk DISK2 GEM Device Drivers Disk #1 DISK3 GEM Device Drivers Disk #2 DISK4 GEM Device Drivers Disk #3 **NOTE** During installation, the setup program will ask you what mouse you have. If you have a PS/2 port mouse, I have had best results using the 'Bus Mouse (needs MOUSE.COM)' option. For this to work, you will need a blank disk, and put on it MOUSE.COM. This can be any version (Microsoft, Logitech, etc.) but must be called MOUSE.COM. Later in intallation it will ask you for various DOS files. To prepare for this, copy the files: COMMAND.COM (from root directory) MODE.COM }(From DOS directory, or FORMAT.COM }WINDOWS\COMMAND in W95) onto a disk. (I should use the same one as for MOUSE.COM). You do not need to set any disk labels with GEM 1.2 To run the setup program, insert disk 1 and execute the program GEMPREP. (comments/queries to robert.avis@virgin.net)
