Apple Macintosh PowerBook 190 Series - Manual (Page 21)

Before you start making your disks, you’ll need to decide if you want to make
a full set or a minimum set of disks. When you make a full set, you’ll make
disks for your system software and the other disk images that come on your
computer. When you make a minimum set, you’ll make just the essential
system software disks. It is best to make a full set, so you’ll have installer
disks for your system software and the other disk images that come on your
computer. However, making a full set requires more disks and more time than
making a minimum set. At the very least, make a minimum set of disks now.
If you choose to make a minimum set, you can make disks for the other
software later.
If you don’t have disks on hand, you can skip these instructions for the
moment. But the sooner you make the system software disks, the better. Buy
the disks as soon as possible, then return to this section and follow these
instructions.
IMPORTANT Be sure you make at least a minimum set of disks as soon as
possible, in case you need to reinstall your system software.
