Chicago Beta installation instructions:
Luckily I was able to get .IMG files of the Chicago beta. With these files you
can create DMF diskettes (MS's new compression/protection scheme) of the Chicago
beta, build 177. You does this by using the file DMFWRITE.EXE. This program
will format your 1.44 meg floppies to 1.7 meg disks and copy the .IMG files
(converting them to .CAB files) to it after formatting. Below is an example of
how to create the Chicago diskettes:
DMFWRITE disk2.img a: /v
Notice I didn't use disk1.img. THe reason is because you don't use the DMFWRITE
to create the first disk (disk 1). Just unzip the files to a 1.44 meg floppy, then
follow the example above for the rest of the disks. Oh, you need a valid beta site
ID and password. Here ya go!
Beta site ID: 101907
Password: 999b70c9e
A word about "the scene"...
There have been many busts of late, I know some people who going to court right
now for this "hobby". This is NO GAME! If you can't handle it, get out now!
If you are NOT smart enough to validate the users on your board, get out now!
Don't think you'll get off by saying, "I didn't know, boo hoo hoo". The FBI
doesn't care about you... Be smart and be careful.
