Creating a Boot Floppy
----------------------

If you're running Windows 2000 or NT4, you should have created a
boot floppy during the BeOS 5 installation.  But if you're running
Windows 95/98 -- or if you simply want to create another boot
floppy -- follow the instructions here.

1. Boot into Windows.

2. Go to the Start button, browse to Programs > BeOS 5 Personal 
   Edition, and select Create Boot Floppy.

3. A dialog asks you if you want to create the floppy.  After 
   you've inserted a blank floppy disk into the A: drive, 
   click Yes. 

4. When the floppy is ready (it takes about a minute), exit 
   Create Boot Floppy.


Launching BeOS 5 Personal Edition
---------------------------------

1. Double-click the Start BeOS 5 icon on your Windows desktop.
 
If you encounter problems launching or running BeOS 5 try
starting your computer from the BeOS Boot Floppy:  

1. Shut down your computer.

2. Insert the BeOS Boot Floppy into the A: drive.

3. Start your computer.


Booting into BeOS 5 Under Windows NT4/2000 
------------------------------------------  

1. Insert the BeOS 5 boot floppy you made into the A: drive.   

2. From the Windows Start button, browse to 
   Programs > BeOS 5 Personal Edition and select Start BeOS 5, 
   or double-click on the Start BeOS 5 icon that's on the
   Windows desktop. 

This automatically quits Windows and launches BeOS 5.
