   This is not built directly into the OS; you'll need to run a
program capable of doing the copy. If you have a DOS 3.3 system master
around, run the program 'COPYA' to try backing up an unprotected
disk. [Copy protected disks are much more work, given that the
manufacturer decided to try and enforce their license of 1 copy per
paying customer]
