APPENDIX C

Copying Disks with Filer

We have included Filer, a utility program, on the AW 2 Expander disk to enable you to make backup copies of your disks that are not copy protected. The instruction below tell you how to use Filer to copy from disk to disk. See Chapter 2 for instructions on using Filer to copy AppleWorks to your RamFactor.

1.Load Filer.

2.Select "Volume Commands” (v)

3.Select "Copy a Volume” (C). The settings default to a two drive set up with your master in Slot 6 Drive 1 and your copy disk in Slot 6, Drive 1. Adjust to your set up. (If you only have one drive you can copy from S6, D1 to S6, Dl.)

4.Press return to accept the default settings or enter your own.

5.Insert the master disk in your drive that you have set the program to copy from. Insert a blank disk (it does not need to be formatted) in the drive you have set the program to copy to. The blank disk must have the write protect tabs removed.

6.Press the Return key.

7.Name your volume. It will default to the name of the master disk (ex: When copying AppleWorks, the volume name will default to “/APPLEWORKS”. Hit return or give it a different name. (You must give the front and back side of AppleWorks the same name.)

8.When you press return, the copy program will begin formatting the copy disk. Then the words “READING” and “WRITING” will flash on and off the screen to entertain you while you wait.

9.When the program is finished copying, it sends the message, “COPY COMPLETE” to the screen.

10Remove both disks. Put your master disk in a safe place and label your copy disk. You will make your modifications to the copy disk.
