I'm sure most of every on here knows this but I was playing around
with AMDOS (A version I downloaded from AOL before it went comercal).
I formatted a 3 1/2 disk using AMDOS then copy all the files
from my very old DOS 3.3 System Master (used FID). I then booted this
3 1/2 disk.
It acted just like a 5 1/4 DOS 3.3 by loading integer into
memory. I was able to run all kinds of intiger programs and still go
back to Applesoft. The only problem that wouldn't work was 'copya'.
No suprise it would only copy 5 1/4 disk.
I was exepcting that loading integer into memory would make the
AMDOS from working correctly. Now I am wondering if this holds true
with UniDOS? I can't find my UniDOS master disk to find out..
Yes I know, sometimes I have too much time on my hands! LOL
