Dear;
I created two floppy medias. One is made from "format a:/s".
The other is made from "format a:" and copy (ph.bat Phlash16.exe,
flashabl.rom)
However at step 8), Phlash16 error came up. ( display as follow )
Phoenix Phlash16 Utility Version 1.4 Build 57
Phoenix Phlash16 Error
Cannot flash if Memory Manager (eg. HIMEM) present
PRESS ANY KEY TO EXIT
Now I give up to install bluequartz to the GS14 servers.
Thank you very much Gerald.
By now.
