Doing that gives something like cpy device block# device block# number_of_blocks I will give you an example of how to copy hd0 to diskette.... This assumes you 2400 sectors per diskette. cpy iodn 0 4 0 2400 where iodn is the minidisk iodn of hd0. 4 is the iodn of the diskette drive. After copying a diskette's worth of data, change diskettes and enter cpy iodn 2400 4 0 2400 This will copy starting at sector 2400. You may be able to use hd0 as the iodn argument but I can't remember. -- James Moody aesnet:moody@moody.austin.ibm.com Advanced Workstations Division vnet: MOODY at AUSVMQ Austin, Tx zip:3401
