D 3E 2 I 1 E 1This screen tells you what hardware Mastodon has detected on your machine, and where the installation will come from. In most cases, you should be able to just press <RETURN> and continue into the install, but if something is wrong (the amount of memory detected, for example, the mouse, or the install medium) you can <TAB> into the inventory list and correct Mastodon's misconceptions about your machine.
- Memory
- This shows the amount of memory in your machine (to the nearest megabyte.) By default, this memory is autodetected, but you can change it (by highlighting this item and pressing <RETURN> to edit it) to the number of megabytes that are actually available in your machine. If you hand-set the amount of memory in the machine and then wish to have Mastodon automatically detect it after all, you just delete the number and it will revert to that behavior.
- Mouse
- This is the mouse that Mastodon detected. You may change the mouse, disable it, or set one if Mastodon did not detect it.
- Install from
- This is the device that Mastodon will be installed from. If you have multiple devices in the machine, Mastodon will attempt to install from the first CD-ROM that it finds; if you aren't planning to install from that one, editing this field brings up a menu showing all of the available devices. NOTICE: As of Mastodon INST0050, CD-ROM drives are the only thing that actually work for installs. Mastodon will cheerfully detect Iomega Zip drives, but doesn't actually do anything with them yet.
Aside from the items listed on the menu, there are two other things you can do. You may press <ESC> to escape from this menu and cancel the installation, or you may press the [Install] button to D 4 proceed with the installation. E 4 I 4 proceed with the installation. E 4
