Doing a custom installation

For most Macintosh users, the Easy Install procedure described in the
previous sections is appropriate, because it automatically installs all the items
you need. However, if you’d like to select a combination of system software
files for your specific needs, you can customize your system software
installation. You use custom installation to install or update one or more
specific files, or to save space on your hard disk by installing only the files
you want.

To install customized system software, follow these steps:

1

Start up your computer from the

Install Disk 1 disk or the CD-ROM disc that contains

system software.

See “Starting Up From a CD-ROM Disc” or “Starting Up From a Floppy
Disk” in the section “Initializing a Hard Disk” earlier in this chapter.

2

Click OK.

The Easy Install dialog box appears.

3

Choose Custom Install from the pop-up menu.
