The CompuFax software is shipped as a saveset on tape. If you plan to load the software on multiple systems,
you may find the installation will proceed faster if the saveset is copied from the distribution media to disk,
moved to the designated systems and then installed from disk. For multiple systems follow the steps listed
here:

Create a temporary target directory in which to load the files:

$ CREATE/ DIRECTORY target-directory

Move to the target directory you just created:
$ SET DEFAULT target-directory

Mount the tape drive unit for reading:
$ MOUNT tape-drive: NDC

Move the savesets from tape to disk using the command below. Substitute the correct product name;
