SELECT copies the rest of the files from the Startup

diskette to the hard disk. When all the files are copied, the

prompt reappears. The partition on the hard disk is

now formatted.

Note

The SELECT procedure described above copies all the files

from your Startup diskette to a directory it created on drive C
named /DOS. This enables you to start MS-DOS from the

hard disk. However, you should copy all the MS-DOS files to

your hard disk as described in the following section.

Copying the Remaining Files to the Hard Disk

Follow the instructions below to copy the files on your ocher
MS-DOS diskettes and the Reference diskette to drive C, the

partition on the hard disk:

1. Remove the MS-DOS Startup diskette from drive A and

insert the diskette labelled Operating 1 in the drive.

You should still be logged onto drive A. If not, type

and

press Enter.

At the A> prompt, type the following and press Enter:

COPY *.* C:\DOS

MS-DOS copies all the files from the diskette to the \DOS

subdirectory on the hard disk. The file names appear on the
screen as they are copied.

4. When the A> prompt reappears, remove the Operating 1

diskette and repeat the procedure for the Operating 2 and

Reference diskettes. Store all your

diskettes in

a safe place.
