/TIME=hh:mm:ss
When this switch is used, all files and subdirectories have their timestamp set to
the supplied value.  The corresponding datestamp is not affected.  If this switch
is not supplied, the timestamp for all files and subdirectories is copied from the
source and the timestamp for the volume label is set to the current time.
/VOLSER=xxxx[–]xxxx
Defines the volume serial number to be placed in the logical boot sector of the
disk image.  If this switch is not supplied a pseudoĆrandom volume serial number
is generated.
@pathname
Since the DOS command line is limited to about 128 characters, this switch proĆ
vided so that switches may be specified in a file.
pathname (with wild card characters)
Any parameter other than those specified above is treated as a pathname of files
that should be added to the image.  When a subdirectory name is supplied, the
entire subdirectory tree is added to the image.  All format parameters specified
after a pathname are ignored.  Note that the only way to create a subdirectory is
to add a subdirectory that has children subdirectories.
(a final comment)
DOS environment variables can be used either on the command line or within an
argument filename simply by enclosing the environment variable in percent
signs as in .BAT files.  For example %TEMP% evaluates to the current value of
the TEMP environment variable.
