To install the NovaBack program, simply insert the distribution disk in
floppy drive A or B, then type A:INSTALL (or B:INSTALL) at the DOS prompt,
then press ENTER. You may also attach to the floppy drive first, then just
type INSTALL at the DOS prompt, then press ENTER.

Note that we have included the NOVAHELP program, which provides up to date
information along with several other helpful topics. To try it, please 
first complete the NovaBack installation procedure, then log into the 
directory where the NovaBack files have been installed, then type

			  NOVAHELP <ENTER>


	    ********* About the INSTALL program *********

The INSTALL program has been included to install the NovaBack program files. 
It also functions to check for and set up proper system configuration
(depending on your Host Adapter Card) in the CONFIG.SYS file on your BOOT 
drive.

It also inserts the FILES = 20 , BUFFERS = 20 statement if not found. 

If for some reason you have problems with the INSTALL procedure completing
properly (no problems have been reported so far), OR if you are a more 
experienced user and would prefer a manual method to install files, the
following procedure may be used to install your program files:

Use the command, <source_path>\MKNOVABK <target_path> to install the files.

For example, if the INSTALL disk is inserted in Drive A, and you wish
to use a C:\NOVASTOR directory for the NovaBack files, you should use
the command,
		 A:\MKNOVABK C:\NOVASTOR

If you DO use this "manually unpack" method apart from our INSTALL command,
you must be sure the proper drivers, if needed, are called out in your 
CONFIG.SYS file. A driver is needed IF you use the ADAPTEC or BUSTEK SCSI
host adapter. No driver is required for the ALWAYS card. If you need more
information on the correct driver, please refer to the APPENDIX in the 
NovaBack manual.

Also, the driver 'NSD.SYS' is required in order to use the scheduling feature
in NovaBack, which allows for automatic backup at a pre-designated time of 
day.

You also should have FILES and BUFFERS set to at least 20.
