RISC OS 6 Select 6i1 is a more- up-to-date version of RISC OS that
can be softloaded over earlier copies (RISC OS 4.02 and above).   
Some caveats may apply (see below, and the readme files on the CD.
This release of 6i1 is supplied with an installation application, 
which will automate much of the install process. This can be found
in the 'NewUsers' directory.                                      
                                                                  
Users who already have RISC OS 6.06 to RISC OS 6.16 installed     
should use the contents of the 'UpgradeRO6' directory to upgrade  
to Select 6i1. Users running these versions of RISC OS 6 MUST NOT 
use the full RISC OS Six installer supplied in the 'NewUsers'     
directory.                                                        
                                                                  
Note that RISC OS 6 needs to be installed to a drive that has long
filename support enabled.
