Ther is an easy way to solve that problem. Use Glen Bredon's DOS Master.
DOS Master will set up a partition for DOS 3.3 on any ProDOS drive. You
can set the number of volumes you want and then use the DOS Master
Utilities to copy the files to the volumes in the partition. I use DOS
master to run such games as Arkanoid and Xevious on my Hard Drive. One
hitch is that the programs must not be copy protected. I had to crack the
protection on the above mentioned games before they could be copied onto
the drive. One simple rule of thumb is that if the program can be copied
with regular Apple utilities, then it will run with DOS Master.
