automount it. Then type:
cd /cdrom/012_0006_*
5 To transfer the software packages to
the system, type:
pkgadd -d dx2pciZZZ.pkg
where ZZZ = the revision of
the driver CD.
Version conict
If a previous version of the
driver software exists on your
system, remove it before
you install the new package.
Type pkgrm, and select the
DOMEdx2 and DOMEmdlib
packages for removal. Do
not remove the DOMEmdlib
package already installed if it
is newer than the one on the
driver CD.
Check the versions listed on
the driver CD to get the
software revision.
