RSTORE Version 0.01: (c)1992 by Gary Glueckert, The SUNY BBS 516-420-0818
Purpose:
--------
This software was written to work with the RBBS utility OFFLINE2.ZIP which
is an offline file system using RBBS' Fast File Search and Macro abilities.
RSTORE will restore an entire disk or list of disks based on the DISK??.DIR
files as illustrated in OFFLINE1.ZIP and OFFLINE2.ZIP. This is a very
down and dirty, primitive program to make restoring offline disks a little
easier.
Using RSTORE:
-------------
RSTORE needs a configuration file to work. It will only use and work with
a configuration file that is named RSTORE.CFG. There is no support for
altenative config. filenames.
The RSTORE.CFG is just a list of DISK??.DIR files to restore to the drive(s).
The best way to set up a CFG file for RSTORE is to use the DOS DIR command
redirected to a file. Be sure to use the /B option to obtain the bare
directory format. EG: DIR DISK??.DIR /B > RSTORE.CFG
This will create a Config file containing a list of ALL of your DISK??.DIR
files. Delete the ones from this list that you do not want to restore. If
you are only restoring one DIR then you will have to list only that one in
the RSTORE.CFG file.
Once you have the config file set up then invoke RSTORE like so:
RSTORE Sourcedrive: Destination drive:\path
Eg: RSTORE B: C:\FILES
From here on just follow the prompts and RSTORE will restore all of the files
listed in the DISK??.DIR file.
