- I am probly rong in this but Stacker does have a way to unstacker the
- drive. Its called SREMOVE to remove stacked drive. I Think this is what you
- want. The 1Meg drive F is you uncompressed drive. This is ware all of you
- data is really kept. I can't see why stacker gave you only 12Meg on a 30Meg
- HD. Maybe the Uncompressed prostion was set real big. I would say get
- stacker off the HDs and reinstall it. It sounds like it didn't get
- installed properly.
