RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: E.M.E.

hello! another option MAY be the 'dd' command in linux, it does a one to
one copy of whatever you feed to it.
try something like this:
dd if=/dev/fd0 of=/iamafile.img
that will make an image file of the floppy in the first floppy drive, boot
sector and all... im really not sure if it will copy bad sectors though. if
you dont have linux you can still do this with 'toms root boot floppy' but
make sure to mount your filesystem in /mnt or something to put the image
there, because the filesystem tom's loads is only in ram disk.
but... the dos command rawwrite (not sure of the spelling) may also work!
give that a try first if your using windows...---Dave (hope im helping...)

Try Disk cloner
http://xenia.sote.hu/ftp/dos_win/msdos/ujsag/pcworld/9405/dclone/
It takes an exact snapshot of a disk and copies it. I don't know if it will
copy between 5 1/4 and 3 1/2 though.
