Updating an Emergency Repair Disk
Whenever you upgrade your software or change your system configuration, Grass
Valley Group strongly recommends that you update the emergency repair disk
shipped with your Profile system. This will allow you to restore system
configuration in the event the operating system has a major problem.
To update your emergency repair disk, you need the 3.5-inch floppy disk labeled
Emergency Repair Disk that was shipped with your Profile system, or any blank
3.5-inch floppy disk properly labeled.
NOTE: The emergency repair disk is Profile system specific. Make sure that
the emergency repair disk is clearly marked with the unit’s serial number.
To update the Emergency Repair Disk:
1. From the Start menu, choose the
RUN
command.
2. Enter
rdisk /s
in the Run dialog box, then press the Enter key or click
OK
. The
Saving Configuration progress bar appears.
3. When the Setup dialog box appears, click
Yes
to create an emergency repair
disk.
4. Insert your existing emergency repair disk or a blank 3.5-inch floppy disk in
the Profile system floppy drive and click
OK
. The Formatting Disk progress
bar appears.
5. When the operation is complete, remove the emergency repair disk from the
Profile system and store it in a safe location.
This completes the DVCPRO upgrade installation procedure.
