Remove the stacker entries in your config.sys.  Then delete the stackvol.sys
file from the unstackered drive.  Et voila!  No more stacker... (no more data
but that's not my problem...).

If you want to preserve the data then you probably want to back up the stacker
data to floppies, do the above procedure, then restore the backup.  It probably
won't fit onto your drive now though... (again, not my problem...).
