Saver 2.8 is from the older style of install procedures.

It's main reason for existing was because of the extremely horrible
preformance of the standard backup program. I used to have a manual
for it, but cannot locate it any more.

I'm not sure if it will install properly on RSTS greater than version 8,
as it doesn't seem to work on 10.


log into 1,2, then

$ run build
BUILD V10.1-A RSTS V10.1-L RSTS/E V10.1

Input device <_SY:> ? ms0:
Output device <_SY0:> ?
Control File is ? saver.ctl

*** Copying file _MS0:[1,2]SAVER.CTL to BLD02.TMP ***
