[ofw] WinOF 1.0 [RC3] available for test.

[Erez Cohen]

Stan,

I think we are getting very close for a release.
Most of the issues I've sent where addressed nicely. Few minor issues
(tested on Win2K3, 32bit and XP 64bit):

1. During uninstall on Win2K3 32 bit machine I got the enclosed error
message. After reboot the HW devices where gone but the WinOF package
(as seen in the add remove programs window) was there. I run a second
uninstall, this time it worked just fine.

2. WinOF dir still remain after uninstall on the Win2K3 32bit machines.
It was gone on the XP 64bit.

3. When choosing typical installation, OSM as service is installed in
the "Disable" mode. This prevent it to be started with net start
command:
I:\>net start opensm

System error 1058 has occurred.
The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because
it has no enabled devices associated with it.	     

I recommend installing the service in the manual mode.

4. In custom installation there is a component called OSM as service (or
something similar to that). What it actually does is setting the SM to
auto and start it. If not chosen, the SM will be installed but not
started (see 1 above). I think a more appropriate name for this
component/feature is "Enable OpenSM" as it will be installed even if not
chosen.

5. Uninstall from the start menu pops the "Add Remove Program" window
rather then start the uninstall process.

6. In add remove windows, there is no information in at "click here for
support information" in XP 64 bit.

Best regards,

Changes since WinOF RC2
-----------------------

1) 'Program Files->WinOF->Uninstall' shortcut works correctly on Win2k3
& XP.

2) Install folder '\Program Files\WinOF' is, once again, correctly
removed during an uninstall.

3) WSD is not installed on XP systems. Contrary to InstallShield
documentation, WSD
   shows up in the Custom Install selection, if selected to install it
will not be
   installed on an XP system.

4) IB core is 'always' installed, includes 'custom' install selection.

5) Currently selected features of an install are displayed prior to
installation.

6) \Program Files\WinOF is 'appended to' or 'removed from' the system
wide search path.

7) OpenSM is installed as a 'disabled Windows' service by default. A
Custom install selecting
   the 'OpenSM_service' will enable automatic service start for OpenSM.

8) Updated Release Notes with discussions on the above.
