a filename based on the SoftPaq Number above.

and follow the on-screen instructions.  You will be prompted to 
insert the formatted diskettes in a drive to create the diskettes.

4. After the diskettes haves been created, you may delete the  
SoftPaq file downloaded in step 2.

HOW TO UPGRADE THE SYSTEM PARTITION:

System Partition, boot to the System Partition and navigate 
through the menus and select the Upgrade System Partition choice. 
Place an X next to the Array Configuration Utility and press 
ENTER. You will be prompted to insert both diskettes and after the 
files have been copied you can run the ACU from the System 
Partition.

NOTE: This requires a 32MB System Partition which can only be 
created on a hard disk with 32MB of unused space at the beginning 
of the drive.  Use the Compaq System Configuration Utility Version 
2.30 or later to create a 32MB System Partition.  Search for the
