4. Drive A already contains the diskette you want to copy (the
source diskette), so just press any key. The DISKCOPY
program copies most of the files on the diskette to the
computer’s memory. (Because the 720KB MS-DOS diskette
holds more data than fits in the computer’s 640KB of memory,
the computer must copy the diskette in two passes. MS-DOS
prompts you when you need to change diskettes.)
The screen then displays this message:
Insert TARGET diskette in drive A:
Press any key when ready . . .
5. Remove the Startup/Operating 1 diskette from drive A by
pressing the release button, and insert the blank diskette (the
target diskette) in the drive. Then press any key.
If the diskette in drive A has not been formatted, the
DISKCOPY program formats it. Then the program begins
copying the data from the computer’s memory to the formatted
diskette. When it has copied all the files from memory, the
screen displays this message:
Insert SOURCE diskette in drive A:
Press any key when ready . . .
6. Remove the target diskette from the drive and insert the
original Startup/Operating 1 diskette. Then press any key.
The DISKCOPY program copies the rest of the files from the
original diskette to the computer’s memory and then displays
this message:
Insert TARGET diskette in drive A:
Press any key when ready . . .
