Hello all,
I wouldn't doubt there is a simple solution to this problem, but nevertheless I can't figure it out. The title pretty much says it all - my XT clone has both 3.5" and 5.25" floppy drives, and I want to copy a file from a diskette in the 3.5" drive to a different diskette in the same drive, but I have no idea how! I can't use the COPY ... B: command or else it will try to copy it to the 5.25" drive.
I realize I could temporarily disconnect the 5.25" drive or copy the file to a 5.25" diskette and then copy the file to the intended 3.5" diskette, but surely there must be a simpler way to do this?
Thanks,
-Trent
