You'll see this message at the bottom of the display:

INSERT DISKS AND PRESS

Only Got One Drive?

You can make copies with a single disk drive it just takes a lot longer. Watch for instructions
on the display that tell you when to swap your source volume for your destination volume.

If

you need more guidance, follow the instructions for Copying a Volume in the ProDOS User's
Manual.

Put your source disk, An Introduction, in drive 1 and your destination disk, a blank disk, in
drive 2 and press Return.

You'll hear some whirring and see the words FORMATTING, READING, and WRITING as the disk is
being copied.

When it's all over, you'll see this message:

COPY COMPLETE

When you see that message, take your new backup copy of An Introduction out of drive 2 and
label it with a felt-tip pen.

(If you don't really want a backup copy of An Introduction, you

can use the copy you just made as a destination disk the next time you need to copy something.)

Problems?
If you have problems copying this or any other disk, consult the ProDOS User's Manual.
