      BACKGROUND
      
      If you wish to start your computer without mounting your Stacker
      drives, you may do this from a boot (startable) floppy disk that
      does not invoke the Stacker device driver. This will give you
      access to your uncompressed drives only.
      
      SOLUTION
      
          - Making a boot disk with MS-DOS 6 or greater.
          - Making a boot disk with PC-DOS 6.1.
          - Making a boot disk with other DOS versions.
           
      
      Making a boot disk with MS-DOS 6 or greater.
      
       1. Place your MS-DOS Setup disk in drive A or B.
       2. From the DOS prompt type the following:
           A:SETUP /F
           or
           B:SETUP /F
       3. Follow the instructions on the screen.
           
      Remember that MS-DOS allows you to make a boot disk in drive B,
      but you can still only boot from drive A.
      
      Making a boot disk with PC-DOS 6.1.
      
      PC-DOS 6.1 presently supports pre-loading compression drivers
      such as Stacker. The earliest releases of this operating systems
      did not. You may avoid this issue when making your boot disk by
      simply making a DISKCOPY of PC-DOS disk 1. This disk is startable
      and has basic DOS commands on it
      
      Making a boot disk with all other versions of DOS.
      
      Place a blank formatted disk in the A drive and type the
      following from the DOS prompt:
       SYS A:
