SYMPTOMS

If you install MS-DOS 6.22 Upgrade Setup on a machine running Stacker, Setup properly updates the files in the root directory on the Stacker host drive, but Setup deletes the following three MS-DOS files from the DOS directory on the Stacker host drive.

COMMAND.COM
ATTRIB.EXE
CHKDSK.EXE

RESOLUTION

To correct this problem, copy these three files from the directory that contains your MS-DOS files to the DOS directory on your host drive. For example, if the directory containing your MS-DOS files is C:\DOS and your Stacker host drive is H, type the following at the MS-DOS command prompt and then press ENTER:

copy c:\dos\command.com h:\dos
