|
|
Premium Exec 286/12, an error will occur. The error is a
|
|
blinking cursor on the upper left hand corner of the screen

SYSTEMS
|
|
AFFECTED: Premium Exec 286/12
|
|
|
|
CAUSE: This problem is caused only when the Suspend mode is enabled.

SOLUTION: Currently, AST's Portable Marketing group has determined that
|
|
this problem will not be fixed. However, there is a
|
|
workaround for this problem. Before installing DOS 5.0, run
|
|
the Premium Exec 286/12 setup program and disable Suspend
|
|
mode. then proceed with the installation. When the
|
|
installation for DOS 5.0 is completed, re-run setup and enable
|
|
the Suspend mode.
