                    1. Load ASPIDAC.NLM             1. Load ASPIDAC.NLM
                    2. Load TAPEDAI.DSK             2. Load TAPEDAI.DSK
                    3. Load TSA312.NLM              3. Load TSA400.NLM
                    4. Load SBACKUP.NLM             4. "SCAN FOR NEW DEVICES"
                    5. Load SBACKUP.NLM                 (Enter the above
                                                        information in quotes)

    NOTE:   With Netware 4.01, TAPEDAI.DSK is not copied from the CD-ROM
            during installation.  It must be manually copied to the systems hard
            drive.
