Support Note:

If the driver software does not fit onto the

floppy diskette, you need to create a Presto 8 Enabler Boot disk with

sufficient disk space for the additional software. One way to accomplish
this is to copy the files from the Presto 8 Enabler Boot diskette onto a Zip
disk or external hard drive, install the third-party CD-ROM driver software,
and boot from the Zip disk or external hard drive.

Support Note:

It is important to boot your Macintosh from the

Presto 8 Enabler Boot diskette otherwise you will not be able to

install Mac OS 8.
