Changing the Default Drive
When you see the
A>
prompt, you know that MS-DOS is
operating from drive A.
If you want to run a program or find a file on a different drive,
however, you
must
specify that drive. You can do this by
including the drive identifier with the filename or by logging on
to that drive. The drive identifier is the letter of the disk drive
followed by a colon.
For example, to log on to drive B (the bottom diskette drive),
type
B
: and press
Enter.
Your screen now displays the
B>
prompt. This means that you
are now operating from drive B as the default drive. The system
continues to read from drive B until you log on to another
drive, or turn off or reset your computer.
To access a program or file without changing the default drive,
use
a drive identifier with the filename. For example, if you are
logged on to drive A and want to access a file on drive B, type
the drive identifier and the filename together like this:
B:README.TXT
Entering MS-DOS Commands
You can enter an MS-DOS command whenever you see the
MS-DOS command prompt. To enter a command, type the
command name and any necessary parameters, and then press
Enter
to execute the command. Parameters include items that
identify the data you want to process and switches that alter the
effects of a command.
