Subject: Adding pcdist to CD-ROM file system?
Date: Sat,  9 Dec 1995 10:26:50 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <19951209152650.mD8ywkUQYjs5udR1Zd9UD6b-tw_TvGbV2nlSOQVulsM@z> (raw)

After a few days of reconfiguring my ATAPI CD-ROM drive, I managed to 
get the Plan 9 CD-ROM to install (at last!). Everything works fine 
except I would like to have the TRIO64 VGA drivers that were 
available on the diskettes but not present on the CD-ROM. 
   My question is, how can I *safely* install some or all of the 
files from the updated diskettes onto my brand new Plan 9 system? 
I've got a vague idea how but I'd really hate to nuke my hard-won 
file system tinkering in things I only THINK I understand.
   Any advice from someone who's been there.
