      STACKER NOTE                                         STACKER NOTE
                     STACKER SETUP ON SMALL HARD DRIVES
                          (Applies to Stacker 4.0)

      BACKGROUND
      
      If you are setting up Stacker 4.0 on a small hard disk such as 20
      MB, you may not have sufficient room to compress the disk. You
      will receive a message during Setup concerning how much free
      space you need on the hard disk in order to compress it. The
      Stacker files themselves take over 3MB of disk space. This
      document tells you how to Setup Stacker using the minimum space.
      
      SOLUTION
      
       1.  Make sufficient free space on the drive to Setup Stacker. If
           you do not have enough free space, you should receive a
           message during Setup about how much space you do need.
           Backup enough files or programs from the hard disk, then
           delete the files from the disk. You may use the DOS BACKUP
           command, or a third party utility to make your backup. See
           your DOS documentation for using the BACKUP command.
       2.  Run the Stacker Setup as you would normally. See the Stacker
           User's Guide for details. Allow Setup to compress the entire
           drive.
       3.  After Stacker is setup, open the file FILELIST.TXT (found in
           the STACKER directory) in any text editor. Note the files
           that are listed as optional. You may delete these files from
           your Stacker directory in order to minimize the Stacker
           installation and save space on your hard disk. Naturally the
           functionality of these files will not be available, but
           Stacker will perform its basic purpose of compressing your
           hard disk.
       4.  Restore any files you removed to make space on the drive.
           See the documentation for your Backup/Restore utility for
           details. If you used the DOS BACKUP command to backup the
           files from your disk, see the DOS documentation on the
           RESTORE command.
