Download
--------  

The download package is a compressed tar file. Download the file in binary, then
uncompress and untar the package.  (Note: The SGI tar file is not compressed) 

System V Installation
---------------------

MarkVision for UNIX Networks installs on System V machines using your 
operating system install utility. The MarkVision for UNIX Networks 
distribution is contained in a single file with a .pkg file extension 
on System V machines. You may need to uncompress and untar the downloaded 
file before installing.

After downloading the appropriate install package for your system, use your
system install utility to unpack the product. The following list outlines
the install utility command for each platform, using 'markvision.pkg' as 
the package filename. Substitute your downloaded package filename in place 
of 'markvision.pkg.'

	OS		Install Utility Command       
	------		-----------------------       
	
	AIX		# smit install_latest        
	HP-UX 9		# /etc/update               
	HP-UX 10	# /usr/sbin/sam
	NCR		# pkgadd -d markvison.pkg
	SGI		# /usr/sbin/swmgr
	SCO 		# pkgadd -d markvision.pkg
	Solaris x86	# pkgadd -d markvision.pkg
	Solaris SPARC	# pkgadd -d markvision.pkg
	UnixWare	# pkgadd -d markvision.pkg

Generally, you can uninstall packages using the same utility as you used to 
install. Exceptions are: HP-UX 9 uses '/etc/rmfn'; and systems that install
using 'pkgadd' uninstall using 'pkgrm.'


SunOS 4.1.x Installation
------------------------
Lexmark provides an install utility for SunOS 4.1.x (BSD) systems. You 
need to uncompress and untar the downloaded file before installing. The 
distribution contains an install script; the 'lexpkgadd' executable; and the 
package file. 


After downloading the appropriate install package for your system, use the 
provided install utility:

  1     Run the install script.

        # ./install.markvision

  2     Select the package you want to install. You can only select one 
        package at a time. Once the package has been installed, you will 
        be prompted to select any other packages.

  3     Follow the instructions on the screen. Installed packages are 
        shown with an asterisk (*) in the first column. Partially installed
	packages are shown with an exclamation mark (!) in the first 
        column.

NOTE 
        If for some reason, the installation is interupted during or 
        before the 'lexpkgadd' program is running, you can always run 
        it from the command line. Ensure you are in the package directory 
        and type:

        # ./lexpkgadd 

	If you interupted the lexpkgadd install procedure and the package 
        was partially installed, please DO NOT reinstall the package over 
        the partial package. First, remove the partially installed package
        using the 'lexpkgrm' utility, then reinstall.



AIX Installation
----------------

Use the AIX command  "smit install_latest".  On the installation screen 
set the "Commit software?" option to "No".  This will allow the software to 
be easily uninstalled at the completion of the evaulation period.
