SUMMARY
You cannot use the MS-DOS 6 Upgrade Uninstall disk to restore your
previous version of MS-DOS if you have compressed any of your hard
disk drives with DoubleSpace or a third-party disk-compression program
unless you remove all traces of the disk-compression software.
If you attempt to restore your previous version of MS-DOS and you have
compressed your hard disk drive with DoubleSpace, you receive the
following error:
Because you installed DoubleSpace after installing MS-DOS 6,
you cannot restore your previous version of DOS.
For MS-DOS 6.22, use DRVSPACE in place of DBLSPACE for commands
and filenames.
