Background.

   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  <ENTER>  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      <ENTER>

7.  During install, you want to choose to "Build an empty Stacker drive"
    The amount to use for the Stacker drive is 1 MB.

9.  Copy the Stacker files from C:\STACKER to D:\. 

10. Type D:\Install  <ENTER>.

11. Choose to "Stack an existing drive with its data".

13. The Install program will reboot your computer after the
    drive has been created.  Change to C:\STACKER.  

14. Type :  SREMOVE D:   <ENTER>
    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."
