                                How to proceed
                               ----------------

     Updating your AMOS Basic will only take you a little time but you must
     keep to these instructions. Hard drive users should proceed on floppy
     disc first, and then copy across the new AMOS files to their hard
     drive.

         1 Format a blank disc.

         2 Set the protection tab of your original AMOS Programs disc to
           avoid accidental erasure of your master.

         3 Using Workbench's DUPLICATE option (or a commercial copier such
           as XCOPY,) create a back-up of the AMOS Programs disc onto the
           newly formatted disc.

         4 Boot up the AMOS Update disc

         5 Double click on the AMOS Update disc icon and then on the
           resulting AMOS Update program icon.

         6 The updater will load and a small window will appear. From this
           point onwards, simply follow and answer the on screen prompts.

         7 When the updater has finished, place the new version in Df0 and
           press Control+Amiga+Amiga keys to boot into AMOS V1.3

         * Please note that the updater will delete many files from the
           backed-up AMOS disc - so please don't use your original master!

         * If everything was right, you will now have a working copy of
           AMOS version 1.3 - make a backup as a precaution. And never go
           back to a prvious version.


                                Hard disc users
                               -----------------

     Once you have Version 1.3 on a floppy disc you simply have to copy
     across the content of the AMOS_System folder into your hard disc
     AMOS_System folder.

     Then copy AMOS1.3 and its icon on the same physical drive. You now
     have AMOS1.3 installed on your system.

     NOTE: you should all previous versions of AMOS from your hard disc,
     to prevent using the wrong version by mistake.
