Copying Files — Single Floppy System
If you have a single floppy system (with or without a hard disk), insert the original new
generic program diskette into drive A, and close the door. Type the following
command after the prompt:
copy a:*.* b: <ENTER>
This command tells
MS-DOS
software to copy all of the files from drive A to drive B.
Since there is no drive B physically installed,
MS-DOS
software will pretend that there
is one. It does this by copying a file from drive A (as much as it can fit) into the PC's
memory. It then displays the following message:
Insert diskette for drive B:
Strike any key when ready...
Open the drive door, and remove the original diskette from the drive. Insert the
working copy diskette into the drive, and close the door. Depress any key. The
MS-DOS
software now copies the file from the PC memory to the working copy
diskette which you inserted into drive A. When the copy is complete, it will display the
following message:
Insert diskette for drive A:
Strike any key when ready...
Open the drive door, and remove the working copy diskette from the drive. Insert the
original diskette into the drive, and close the door. Depress any key. The
MS-DOS
software now begins where it left off. This process repeats until the entire diskette has
been copied. In summary:
• When you are prompted to insert diskette for drive A, insert the original diskette
into the floppy drive.
• When you are prompted to insert diskette for drive B, insert the working copy
diskette into the floppy drive.
• Repeat until the prompt A> appears on the display screen.
