      BACKGROUND
      
      Stacker Setup will not run on a machine that doesn't have a
      floppy disk drive. You must have another computer with a floppy
      drive, and have the capability of transferring files from that
      computer to the notebook with a program such as Laplink..
      
                               Note
      It is important to remember that the Software License Agreement
      provides you with ONE copy of Stacker. Therefore, you can
      transfer Stacker to the notebook, but provisions of the agreement
      assume you'll delete it from any other computer.
      
      SOLUTION
      
      Use the following procedure to compress the hard disk in your
      notebook computer. You should have DOS on your notebook C drive.
      You will need about 6 MB of free space on the hard drive of the
      floppyless notebook.
      
       1.  On the notebook, make a directory called STEMP.
       2.  Use a transfer program such as Laplink to transfer the
           Stacker files from the Stacker disks  in the floppy drive of
           the "host"  computer to the STEMP directory of the notebook.
           Begin with disk #2, and make disk #1 the last disk you
           transfer.
       3.  Change to the STEMP directory on your notebook and type:
            ED STACKER.LBL <enter>.
       4.  Move your cursor to the third line that reads: "Stacker
           Diskette 1 of  2". Change the 2 to a 1. The line will now
           read: "Stacker Diskette 1 of 1". Save the file and exit the
           editor.
       5.  Type SETUP <enter>. Stacker will now compress your drive.
           Just follow the instructions on screen.
           
       6.  After you have finished compressing your drive, you may
           delete the STEMP directory and its contents.
