RE: V5R4 CDs

That's quite normal, the CD's look very cheap and are burned (not
pressed). The labeling was also done on quite a low budget, sometimes
the cd's were burned on different parts of the world.

The B29MM_03/B29MM_04 CD's are completely normal - they're multinational
unlike the CD's which reference language code #2924 (which is US
English).

The order you'll need is I_BASE_01, B1-4, D1-7, L1-2 (and then any
supplemental CD's you've received).

This is also described in detail in the "Installing V5R4" PDF, which is
still use as a reference when doing release upgrades. It helps not to
forget any steps.

If you're coming from V5R2, there are two quirks I've noticed:

Subject: V5R4 CDs

Well, I'm officially almost excited. I got my V5R4 CDs, they're almost
as
good as a Golden Ticket (apologies to Willie Wonka). It seems like I
got
everything, including my very own set of the version 7 WDSC disks!

Many things came with their own packing slip (XML tools, for example, or
the
I_BASE CD) but there was no packing slip for the pack of disks marked
"standard and keyed programs" (or words to that effect). It seems to
have
everything, though:

D_2924_01 through 07
L_2924_01 through 02
B_2924_01 through 02

The weird ones are:

B_29MM_03 through 04

They seem like they're part of the B disk set, but the numbering is a
bit
weird; 29MM instead of 2924. I also noticed that the labels are pretty
inconsistent, as if they were printed up at different times. My
D_2924_04
disk for example doesn't look anything like the others.

But neither here nor there. I think I'm ready for the install. On to
the
fun!

Joe
