ArcMaster v10.9 adds the capability to split a large existing ZIP
file onto multiple floppy disks. This facilitates backing up
directories or entire disks and does it in a way that makes the ZIP
file on each disk completely independent of the other disks. Here
are the steps to follow:
1. Use AM to create the large ZIP file. It makes no sense to
use this capabity of the ZIP file will fit in the target
floppy disk size. The target ZIP may contain file comments,
AV information, and/or be password protected.
2. Hilight the file name and select "Backup ZIP" from the Archive
Commands menu or press Alt+B.
3. Select the target disk size (720K, 1.4M, 1.2M, 360K) and the
target drive letter (A or B).
4. You may enter a 9 character string as a volume label. AM
will add the disk number to each disk label as in:
MYLABEL01, MYLABEL02,.....,MYLABEL13
5. AM will prompt you to insert a new disk for each disk
required. There will be one ZIP file created on each disk
and it will have the same name as the orginal hard-disk
file. Each disk will be labeled as indicated in the back-up
dialog with the sequential number added as the last two
characters.
