MS-DOS
Installation
Some application program diskettes
do
not contain MS-DOS, and
therefore,
are
not bootable. You can boot your system with an
MS-DOS diskette and then insert the application diskette to execute
the program. However, for extra convenience, you can make the
application diskette bootable through a special MS-DOS utility,
COPYDOS.
Note if you have run the program and have created any data files
on your working backup of the application, you cannot make that
diskette bootable. You must utilize your original master in the follow-
ing procedure which first copies the application and then moves
MS-DOS files onto the copy.
1.
Insert your
MS-DOS
diskette in Drive
A.
If you have
a
two-drive
system, insert the master copy
of
the application in Drive
B.
2.
At the
A>
prompt,
type
COPYDOS
(ENTER'I.
You
are
prompted
to switch diskettes
as
the master is first copied and then MS-DOS
files
are
moved onto the new copy of the application program.
