Installing Windows NT or OS/2 Warp
You provide the software to install these alternate operating systems. See the
Corporate Evaluator’s Guide at our Website for complete information on installing
these operating systems, as well as how to configure the OmniBook in a corporate,
networked environment.
To install Windows NT or OS/2 Warp
You will need OmniBook-specific drivers. The drivers for alternate operating
systems are located
• On the Recovery CD ROM, under OMNIBOOK\DRIVERS.
• On the OmniBook's hard drive under C:\OMNIBOOK\DRIVERS.
• On our Website at http://www.hp.com/go/omnibook . This site contains the
latest updates of software drivers.
Different versions of an operating system require different drivers, so make sure to
select the appropriate driver
The equipment you need are the OmniBook, its ac adapter, a floppy disk drive, and
a CD-ROM drive (preferably SCSI-type). You also need the Support Utility floppy disk.
If you have a docking system, you can leave the OmniBook docked during most of
this procedure.
CAUTION
Before you start installing a new operating system, make sure the drivers you
need will be accessible after the installation . Copy them from the web site or
the hard drive to a floppy disk, or use the Recovery CD with a CD -ROM drive.
