Now that you have started your system and loaded MS-DOS, it

is important that you make copies of your MS-DOS diskettes

right away. Use the copies (called working copies) as they are
needed and store the originals in a safe place.

Each of the system diskettes is formatted for 360KB.

(Formatting prepares a diskette to store data and is described in

Chapter 3 and Chapter 5.)

To copy them, you need seven 360KB doubledensity, 5¼-inch

diskettes.

N o t e

If you do not have any 360KB diskettes, you can use
unformatted 1.2MB diskettes.  When copying from 360KB

diskettes, the DISKCOPY program formats the 1.2MB

diskettes for 360KB.

Follow these steps:

1.
