ELITE SERIES USER MANUAL DOS ENHANCEMENTS
After the “6<CTRL—P><RETURN>” sequence is typed
on a non-autostart Apple (the <CTRL—P> part
won’t show on the screen), your system drive
should rattle for a moment and then Sit there
quietly spinning.
In both cases, the drive will end up waiting for
you to insert a diskette; so indulge it by
inserting your DOS master diskette (not the
Enhancer diskette). Once the door is closed,
the system will “boot” (if the diskette is okay)
and eventually display a “]” or “>“ prompt. The
first indicates you are in Applesoft BASIC, and
the second indicates you are in Integer BASIC.
Both are okay for these instructions. When
booting an original DOS diskette from Apple,
alot of other stuff will probably happen before
you get the BASIC prompt. This just means that
the “hello” program has executed (harmless). If
you never get the BASIC prompt (“]” or “>“), it
may be wise to try another diskette.
Once you get the BASIC prompt, type:
CATALOG<RETURN>
and DOS will list all the files on your DOS
diskette.
Look through the list and locate the file
“MASTER CREATE”. If CATALOG stops before anoth-
er BASIC prompt appears, that means there are
more files than will fit on the screen, press:
