Preparing the System
If
you have an expansion unit with a fixed disk drive
installed, use the following procedure to prevent
damage to the fixed disk during relocation.
Warning: Normal shipping and handling can result
in a permanent loss of all data on a fixed disk drive.
We recommend that you back up all fixed-disk files
onto diskettes before continuing with this
procedure.
Depending
on
the amount of data stored, you may
need
as
many as 64 formatted diskettes
to
back up
each fixed disk drive. Refer
to
the
mM
DOS
manual for a description of the Backup command.
Following
is
the procedure for preparing your
system.
1 Insert the Diagnostics diskette into drive A.
2 Set the Power switch
on
the expansion unit (if
attached) and system unit
to
On.
The following message appears on your screen.
