How to make a new DOS 6.22 disk

[multifusk]

My old DOS 6.22 disk 1 is suddenly not readable. And do I have a copy of it ????? NO !

I have downloaded a DOS 6.22 from the Net. but it comes in 3 .img files.
How can i make a new set of DOS disks from these files, do I need some expanding software ?

Hope some of you can help

Hello, perhaps this

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IMG_(file_format)

can help you.

Each .img file is a image of the one of the disks of the MS-DOS 6.22 floppy set.

under Linuy you can use the "dd" command to copy the image to the raw device

something like

$ dd if=boot.img of=/dev/fd0 bs=1440

should do it where

if = input file -> your dos images
of = output file -> your floppy drive, standard is /dev/fd0
bs = number of bytes -> length of your image file

I do not know, whether there is an equivalent for Winbased machines.

For more information google for "man dd"

Cheers, Bernhard

I'm using RawWrite to write .img (IMaGe file - something like .iso )

You can type in DOS alone by using "edit", and "save as".
If possible try to get a copy of "MS DOS 6.22 with enhanced tools".
Same size, works even better.

Or, a Dr. Dos 6 <I think> works better than the standard MS-Dos 6.22

Some extra apps, than the 622, AND, a better form of DOSSHELL,
