than the source diskette type. Also, since CLONE
will not restructure the diskette’s directory or
associated information when copying from a
lesser capacity diskette to a higher capacity
diskette, there is only one real reason to
specify a diskette type different from that
specified for the source diskette: copying non-
Elite Three diskette files to Elite Three disk-
ette files when you have only one drive and its
an Elite Three. The FIDR utility can be used to
copy files between different capacity diskettes.
See FID ENHANCE in this manual, and the instruc-
tions for FID in Apple’s The DOS Manual.
FIDR will permit you to transfer individual
files between two diskettes using only a single
drive, however FIDR assumes that both the source
and destination diskette will be of the same
type as defined using PROFILE in the booted DOS.
Due to the way DOS works (which is outside the
scope of this manual), this does not present a
problem when transferring between two non-Elite
Three diskettes of different types; even though
the single drive is defined for a particular
diskette type.
However, this capability does not extend to
Elite Three drives. Therefore, on single drive
Elite Three systems, there is a special approach
to transferring non—Elite Three diskette files
to Elite Three diskettes.
The first step is to use CLONE’s whole diskette
copy to copy the non-Elite Three diskette
(source) to an Elite Three type diskette
(destination type of 3). This will convert the
