Step by step installation instructions for the Major Developement system.

1. Install The Major BBS
   ( it is strongly recommended here to use the default directory "\bbsv6"

     you'll have to edit all the .bat, .lnk, .mak, .def, and .cfg files. )

2. Install Borland C++
   ( Again here you will save yourself a lot of time by useing the default
     directory "\borlandc" )

3. After installing Borland C++, edit these two files so they look like this:
   ( These files should be found in the "\borlandc\bin" directory. )

  First file: TLINK.CFG

  -L\BORLANDC\LIB;\RUN286\BC3\LIB;\BBSV6\DLIB

  Second file: TURBOC.CFG

  -I\BORLANDC\INCLUDE;\RUN286\INC;\BBSV6\SRC
  -L\BORLANDC\LIB;\RUN286\BC3\LIB;\BBSV6\DLIB

4. Install the Phar Lap 286:Dos-Extended SDK.

   Use the default "\run286" directory, when it comes time to choose
   What to install, pick these:
