I left out a tiny bit of info in my last note on booting TRSDOS 6 on a double sided diskette. In addition to the stuff I mentioned, you have to make sure that SYS0/SYS is all on side 1 (one based) of the diskette. In TRSDOS 6.0.x and 6.1.x, the driver cannot cope with that file existing on side 2 or spanning onto side 2. One can cure this by building the double sided diskette using these steps. 1. Format a disk as a double sided diskette. 2. Give the command BACKUP SYS0/SYS:s :d (S) Don't use the COPY command for this. BACKUP also copies the system boot track when it detects that it is moving SYS0/SYS. If there are no flaws, SYS0/SYS should end up on cylinder 1, head 1. (You can use the FREE command to check this.) 3. Then type BACKUP $:s :d (S,I,NEW) This will copy the remaining files to the disk wherever they will fit. < This information is provided by an individual and is not nor should be construed as being provided by Radio Shack or Tandy Corp.
