issuing |tape.in and |tape.out commands). Similarly |disc directs both input

and output data to disc.

Copying Using the CP/M System Disc

The entire contents of a disc can be copied from one to another using the CP/M system

disc. If you have connected only one disc drive to the computer, use the DISCCOPY

facility.

If you are operating 2 disc drives you will find it easier and faster to use the

COPYDISC facility.

Copying Using DISCCOPY

Insert the CP/M system disc and type in:

|cpm

After the prompt A> appears on the screen, type in:

disccopy

The computer will ask you to:

Please insert source disc into drive A

then press any key

Remove the CP/M system disc from the drive, and insert the disc that you wish to

copy. If you wish to copy the CP/M disc itself, simply leave the CP/M disc inserted in

the drive.
