Subject: problem with stacker 3.0 and dosemu- "stacker not installed."
Date: Mon, 15 Feb 1993 04:28:45 GMT

Dear Linuxers who use Stacker 3.0:

  I have both stacker 3.0 (/dev/hda1) and linux (/dev/hda2) installed on
my machine. I started the dos emulator that came with SLS release 0.99p5:

  (1) mount -t msdos /dev/hda1 /usr/dos
  (2) cd /usr/src/dosemu
  (3) dos > errlog

  After I had booted DOS 5.0, I did the following:

  (1) c:
  (2) linux d
  (3) cd \stacker
  (4) stacker c:

For 4- I also tried the following: stacker @c:\stacvol.dsk

What I got is the following message: Stacker not installed.

My question is: How do I get access to this "stackered" volume?

I know this question has probably been asked before, but when
I tried to look for the file called stacker.doc on sunsite.unc.edu,
I couldn't find it. Could some kind soul give me a pointer to where
it is, or send me a copy of it? Thanks a lot!

P.S. I had the following line in my config.sys on drive c: (but NOT
     on the boot floppy):

     device=c:\qemm\loadhi.sys /r:1 c:\stacker\stacker.com /ems
            c:\stacvol.dsk /P=5 c:\stacvol.000 b:

     
     BTW, I am using the 2nd level of compression.
