- The Restore Procedure.
-
- The following procedure assumes that the Emergency Backup database is held
- in the folder D:\WINMEBU. Please remember to type a space character between
- 'd:\winmebu\restore' and 'd:\winmebu' and 'd:\winmebu' and 'c'
-
-
- The folder D:\WINMEBU will contain a DOS batch file called RESTORE.BAT.
- This DOS Batch file will run a DOS version of the freeware zip program,
- from Info-Zip, to restore the 8.3 file names. The zip files containing the
- long named files and folders are then copied to the C: drive. When the
- system is re-booted AISRestore will automatically process these zip files.
-
- 1/ Boot the PC using your Emergency restore diskette.
-
- 2/ Choose an appropriate boot option from the menu.
- (i.e. with or without CD ROM support)
-
- 3/ Optionally Format the C: Drive, but only if the Emergency Backup is
- not on the C: Drive.
-
- 4/ Optionally load SmartDrv by typing a:\smartdrv.
-
- 5/ Start the restore by typing d:\winmebu\restore d:\winmebu c
-
- 6/ Once this phase of the backup has completed, remove the diskette from
- the diskette drive and re-boot the PC by pressing Ctrl, Alt & Delete.
-
- 7/ After typing your Username and Password AISRestore will finish the
- restore process by restoring the long named files.
-
-
-
- Once this restore has completed you should restore the rest of the C: drive
- using your regular C: drive backup script.
-
- It is likely that the scripts on the Emergency System Backup are older than
- the other backups you own. Prior to restoring the rest of the files on your
- C drive you should use the Import DB option of Manage Scripts. If the
- required script does not exist on the newly restored PC, use the Import Backup
- option of New Script. The Restore File Database's that this procedure restores
- are located with the Backup Database (zip) files, in the case of CD backups this
- file is on the last CD used.
