The Patch Kit Installation Instructions manual
(HTML / PDF) ships with all patch kit
versions. Although the basic installation information applies to earlier
kits, some features described in this manual may not exist in earlier
kits.
Updated December 2006
The Installation Instructions for Pre-Inclusive Patch Kits manual (HTML / PDF) provides instructions for installing,
removing, and working with patch kits that pre-date the introduction
of the Inclusive Patch Kits that first shipped with Version 5.1B-2/Patch
Kit 4. Although the instructions are similar to the current manual,
this manual provides examples that reflect what you will see when
working with these earlier kits.
