Back then I was given the task of installing it on a 486, because a sadistic boss. I was studying computing and the boss thought that just because we (my fellow students at the internship) knew how to install a CD drive in Dos, then we automatically knew everything about computing. So we were given the full set of manuals (motherload of paper) a set of install floppies and a computer that had to be build first.
What a freaking week....
The truth was, that we had no idea how this server system worked, and of course had never seen anything like the install process anywere else. We were not given any training, and all the manuals were in English only. F**king ducebag, the boss were.
I think the boss knew even less, so he delegated it to IT students. Smart move on his part.
So what did you learn from this debacle at the nuclear plant ?
