RFA300A Measurement Set 8VSB
Restore the Contents of the Partitions
In some situations, such as when the power has been interrupted, or files were
mistakenly deleted, the RFA300A may fail to boot from the hard drive. If this
happens, use the
RFA300A System and Application Restore Media CD-ROM to
restore the hard drive to factory default installation status.
The RFA300A Measurement Set 8VSB contains one IDE hard drive with two
partitions. The first partition, used for the RFA300A system, is approximately
2000 MB and is formatted with the FAT format. The second partition uses all of
the remaining space on the hard drive, and is formatted with NTFS.
To restore the contents of partition 1 only (NT system and RFA300A applica-
tion), use the following steps. This restore process is effective only if the hard
drive is still good. The process should take less than 15 minutes.)
CAUTION.
The following procedure should preserve the data on Partition 2
(D: drive). However, under some extreme conditions, such as problems with the
partition table or Partition 2, the data may be lost. Therefore, you should back
up important data on disks or over the network before beginning this procedure.
1. Power up the RFA300A Measurement Set 8VSB with the RFA300A System
and Application Restore Media CD-ROM in the CD-ROM drive.
2. Enter restp1.bat at the DOS prompt.
3. Click Continue when prompted.
4. In the warning dialog box, confirm with Yes . A window will show the
progress of the restore function.
5. Remove the CD-ROM from the drive and restart the system when prompted.
