No need for all the hassle. Use the spanning option by PKZIP204 and it will work regardless of PCDOS or MSDOS, version 3 or 6.x g wayne nichols (gwn@cyber1.servtech.com) wrote: : You don't even have to risk that. : Don't BOOT from the MSDOS 3.3 floppy; just copy the MSDOS 3.3 version of : RESTORE to a floppy. Then use that program to restore the backup diskettes : on the PCDOS 6.3 system. I doubt if you will have any complaints from the : RESTORE software about the DOS version, but if you do, just use SETVER : to fix it. : This solution will work with any disk compression, also.
