TITLE: Running OPTIMIZE with Stacker
|
|
|
|
|
|
OVERVIEW: Use this procedure with the Quarterdeck Office Systems program
|
|
OPTIMIZE to modify your config.sys and autoexec.bat files to
|
|
load all possible programs and drivers into high memory. It is
|
|
designed to be used directly from a SSWAPed boot drive.
|
|
|
|
ISSUES/COMMENTS:
|
|
This procedure is for the version of OPTIMIZE that ships with QEMM386 5.x.
|
|
It will NOT work with the OPTIMIZE that ships with QEMM386 6.0.
|
|
|
|
This procedure is NOT necessary if:
|
|
1. A Stacker drive is not installed on drive C:, or
|
|
2. A Stacker drive installed on drive C: is not being SSWAPed.
|
|
For either of these situations, simply OPTIMZE according to the Quarterdeck
|
|
instructions.
|
|
|
|
Stacker version 2.0 users:
|
|
If you are using the /sync option to SSWAP, this procedure will cause SSWAP
|
|
to ask you if you want to update the changed config.sys and autoexec.bat.
|
|
Select No each time you are asked during this procedure. The last time you
|
|
boot (in step 11) the files will be identical and you won't be prompted.
|
|
|
|
RECOMMENDED ACTIONS:
|
|
You will need to know which drive letter refers to your boot drive. This
|
|
can be determined by running the Stacker utility SWAPMAP. One of the lines
|
|
will look like...
|
|
|
|
Drive x: was drive C: at boot time
|
|
|
|
What ever letter is "x:" will be the boot drive. in the procedure below,
|
|
the boot drive will be referred to as "x:".
|
|
|
|
IF YOU ARE INSTALLING QEMM FOR THE FIRST TIME...
|
|
After booting normally, exit any shell program you may be using and unswap
|
|
your boot drive by entering: SSWAP C: x: Then install QEMM.
|
|
DO NOT exercise the option to optimize at this time.
|
|
|
|
STEP 1a IF YOU'VE JUST INSTALLED QEMM...
|
|
Assuming you used the default installation options and the QEMM
|
|
files are all in C:\QEMM, enter the commands below and reboot the
|
|
computer.
|
|
MKDIR x:\QEMM
|
|
COPY C:\QEMM\*.* x:\QEMM
|
|
|
|
STEP 1b IF QEMM WAS INSTALLED BEFORE STACKER then enter the command:
|
|
COPY C:\QEMM\RSTRCFG.SYS x:\QEMM
|
|
|
|
STEP 2 Enter the command: COPY x:\CONFIG.SYS C:\
|
|
|
|
STEP 3 If the Stacker generated autoexec.bat is on drive C:, rename it to
|
|
some other name using the REN command. Next copy your autoexec.bat
|
|
file to C: by entering: COPY x:\AUTOEXEC.BAT C:\
|
|
|
|
STEP 4 Run OPTIMIZE. Tell it to go ahead with it's step 1. When it
|
|
presents you with the options for step 2, press <ESC> to return to
|
|
the DOS prompt.
|
|
|
|
STEP 5 Enter the following commands.
|
|
COPY C:\CONFIG.SYS x:\
|
|
COPY C:\OPT2.BAT x:\
|
|
COPY C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT x:\AE.BAT
|
|
COPY C:\CONFIG.QDK C:\CONFIG.SYS
|
|
|
|
STEP 6 Reboot the computer. When OPTIMIZE presents you with the options
|
|
for step 3, press <ESC> to return to the DOS prompt.
|
|
|
|
STEP 7 Enter the following commands.
|
|
COPY C\CONFIG.QDK C:\CONFIG.SYS
|
|
COPY x:\QEMM\LOADHI.OPT C:\QEMM
|
|
COPY x:\OPT2.BAT C:\
|
|
COPY x:\AE.BAT C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT
|
|
|
|
STEP 8 Reboot the computer. When OPTIMIZE presents you with the options
|
|
for step 3, press <ESC> to return to the DOS prompt.
|
|
|
|
STEP 9 Enter the following command.
|
|
COPY C:\CONFIG.SYS x:\
|
|
|
|
STEP 10 Reboot the computer.
|
|
|
|
STEP 11 Enter the following commands, then reboot the computer one last time.
|
|
COPY C:\CONFIG.SYS x:\
|
|
COPY C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT x:\
|
|
|
|
STEP 12 If you wish to return to your prior configuration, enter the
|
|
following commands.
|
|
COPY C:\CONFIG.QDK x:\CONFIG.SYS
|
|
COPY C:\AUTOEXEC.QDK C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT
