This document is intended for use as a short lesson on creating your own set of master disks from disk images. There is no need to copy the disk images to your hard disk.
Requirements:
1.) Disk Copy, version 4.2, must reside on your hard disk. This application can be found on the Macintosh Software volume of any ES•Software file server via the following path: Spuds (A-L) folder: Disk Copy 4.2.
2.) At least 2 Megabytes of RAM.
3.) If reading FDHD images you will have to increase the partition size of the Disk Copy application by selecting it and then typing 1600 into the 'Current Size:' box.
Directions:
1. Open the Disk Copy application, make sure that you run it from your hard disk.
2. Choose "Load Disk Image..." from the File menu or click the "Load Disk Image..." button.
3. Find and open the disk image you wish to make a master floppy of. All disk image files end in ".image". The messsage "Reading the master disk image into memory..." will appear. Wait while it does just that.
4. If you are making more than one copy select "Multiple Copies" from the File menu and click the "Make Some Copies" button. If you are making only one copy select "Single Copy" from the File menu and click the "Make A Copy" button. The message "Please insert a disk to COPY ONTO..." should appear.
5. Insert an unlocked floppy disk on which you wish the copy to reside. If the floppy has something on it already a dialog will appear asking if you want to completely replace the contents. Click "Duplicate" if it's OK to replace the contents and "Eject" if it's not.
6. When the copy is complete the disk will be ejected and a message saying "The disk was duplicated succesfully" will appear.
7. Repeat steps 2 through 6 until all the disk images for the desired software product have been copied.
