DESCRIPTION:  Creates a cabinet file that contains a binary image for the v2.06
version System ROM for Deskpro EP Series, Deskpro EN Series, and Deskpro EN Series SFF  
models with a 686J1 Family ROM.  The ROM Family and ROM date can be determined by running 
F10 Setup.  

A unique feature of the ROM is one that allows the user to select the language used in
F10 Setup.  The user may choose between Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, 
Italian, Japanese, Norwegian, Portuguese, Spanish, or Swedish.  Please note however, that 
the user sees the chosen language only in F10 Setup, not in the operating system.


Enhancements/Fixes:
 - Corrected a condition that was causing some NIC's (Network Interface Card) to not show 
   up in the F10 Setup Boot Order and therefore not be recognized by the system.
 - Adds support for Compaq System Software Manager (SSM).


HOW TO USE:

1. Download the SoftPaq to a directory on your hard drive.
The file downloaded is a self-extracting executable with a filename 
based on the SoftPaq Number above.

2. Execute the downloaded file and follow the on-screen instructions. 
This creates the cab file containing the ROM image.

3. After the file has been created, you may delete the  
self-extracting file downloaded in step 1.

4. Refer to the Remote Management Setup documentation or System Software Manager (SSM) 
documentation for instructions on creating a Remote ROM Flash job to flash the ROM on
target PCs across the network.
