Installing x6530 Instructions for installing x6530 on a workstation are not included in this manual. All
the x6530 software is provided on a tape that is standard input to the Tandem
INSTALL program. After those files are copied to the Tandem host using standard
installation procedures, you can print a Tandem file named INSTALL that has
procedures for installing x6530 on a UNIX workstation. For example:
6> TGAL /IN $SYSTEM.ZX6530.INSTALL, OUT $S.#PRT1/
