MORE INFORMATION
================

IMPORTANT: The information below is given for information purposes ONLY. The
products are designed to run from the CD-ROM drive; therefore, the

-----------------------------------

Version 1.0
Approximate disk space needed: 304 MB

1. Run Magic School Bus Setup from the compact disc.

2. Copy the following item from the compact disc onto the Macintosh Hard Drive
  icon:

  Sea-R

3. Rename Macintosh Hard Drive to "Magic School Bus - Ocean" (without the
  quotation marks).

4. Run Magic School Bus Explores the Ocean.

You should now be able to run Magic School Bus Explores the Ocean from the hard
drive without inserting the compact disc.

NOTE: To rename your hard drive, Sharing must be disabled.

If you need to run Setup from the compact disc at a later time, make sure that
your hard drive is named something other than "Magic School Bus - Ocean;"
otherwise, Setup may fail.
