The computer will respond by displaying:

Make sure your MS-DOS install diskette is inserted into the A drive. Enter the following command:

The RESTORE command file will be read from the MS-DOS install diskette. The A: C:\ in the command tells MS-DOS that you will be restoring files from diskettes in the A drive to the hard disk root directory. The /S switch tells MS-DOS that you want to restore the subdirectories as well as the root directory files.

You will be prompted to insert the backup archive diskettes into the A drive, one at a time. It is very important that you insert these diskettes in order. The BACKUP command program codes each archive diskette with an identification number, which is read by the RESTORE program. The use of this i.d. number ensures that your files are reassembled properly, and loaded into the correct subdirectories.
