- should create a set of Utility diskettes in case there is ever
- a problem starting the computer from hard disk.
-
- The Utility Diskettes can also start the procedure for backing up
- the operating system to diskettes. Backup diskettes let you
- restore OS/2 to the hard disk in the event of a computer problem.
-
- To create Utility diskettes, you need three blank, high-density
- (2MB) diskettes for a 1.44MB drive, or one extended-density (4MB)
- diskette for a 2.88MB drive.

- 3. Open Create Utility Diskettes. The Create Utility Diskettes
- window appears.
