This procedure is for Stacker 2.0 users with a single partition C: drive
|
|
and the ability to transfer files from a second "host" computer with
|
|
floppy drive to the notebook.
|
|
|
|
Procedure:
|
|
|
|
1. Create a STACKER directory on the C: drive of the notebook.
|
|
|
|
2. Transfer the STACKER files from the host computer to the STACKER
|
|
directory on the notebook.
|
|
|
|
3. Edit the Autoexec.bat on the notebook's C drive and add ;C:\STACKER
|
|
to the path.
|
|
|
|
4. Change to the STACKER directory on the C: drive.
|
|
|
|
5. Type the following: INSTALL /=F
|
|
This will personalize the STACKER files. When you get to the point
|
|
where install wants you to insert a disk, escape out of install and
|
|
exit.
|
|
|
|
6. Type the following: INSTALL
|
|
|
|
7. During install, you want to "Build an empty STACKER drive"
|
|
The amount to use for the Stacker drive is 1 MB.
|
|
|
|
8. Reboot the notebook to mount the empty drive D.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
10. Type D:\Install
|
|
|
|
11. Choose to "STACK an existing drive with its data"
|
|
|
|
12. Choose drive C:
|
|
|
|
13. The Install program will reboot your computer after the
|
|
drive has been created. Change to C:\STACKER
|
|
|
|
14. Type : SREMOVE D:
|
|
This will remove the temporary D: drive.
|
|
|
|
15. Edit the Config.sys on drive C: to remove the reference to
|
|
the temporary D drive. The line should read as follows:
|
|
DEVICE=C:\STACKER\STACKER.COM C:\STACVOL.DSK
|
|
|
|
16. Reboot. Your hardisk is now "Stacked".
