ArcGIS 9.3 installation
ArcGIS Desktop 9.3
This installs all ArcGIS modules and extensions (version ArcInfo) for use on
the UNIL network.
- Browse to \\softboss\soft\Applications\SIG\ArcGIS 9.3\ArcGIS Desktop 9.3

- I accept...
- Browse for a License Manager
- Type "alice.unil.ch" (without the ")
- Select "ArcInfo"
- Select any of the installation types, depending on your needs. "Typical"
does not install any extension. If you want to use some extension, use
"Custom".
- I advise you to NOT install ArcGIS in "Program Files" but in a directory
whose path contains no space. E.g. C:\Progs\ArcGIS
- Same advice for Python. E.g. C:\Progs\Python
