When all the files are copied, the A> prompt redisplays.
The SELECT procedure is complete.
Note
The SELECT procedure described above copies all the files
from your system diskette to the root directory of drive C. You
may, however, want to store these files in separate
subdirectories so they are easier to find. For information on
subdirectories, see Chapter 4 of this manual and your MS-DOS
manual.
Copying the Reference Files to the Hard Disk
Follow the instructions below to copy the files on your
reference diskette to the hard disk. If you want to store them
in a separate subdirectory, see Chapter 4 for instructions.
1.
Remove the MS-DOS diskette from drive A and insert the
reference diskette in the drive.
2.
You should still be logged on to drive A. If not, type A:
and press Enter.
3.
At the A> prompt, type the following and press Enter:
COPY *.* C:
MS-DOS copies all the files from the diskette to your hard
disk. The file names appear on the screen as they are
copied.
4. After copying, remove the reference diskette. Store all your
diskettes in a safe place.
Booting From the Hard Disk
Now you can boot your system (load MS-DOS) from drive
C, your hard disk. Be sure there is no diskette in drive A; if a
system diskette is in the drive, MS-DOS boots from drive A.
