Dr. Doggie's (of Lunchtime) tip of the year:
When making backups of commercial software, protection
on the disc can be a bit of a problem. Even the best
copiers are defeated by some games, especially 4th
Dimension games, and it is not much fun if your only copy
of a game curls up and dies. To help remedy the situation
I would like to pass on this tip. The solution is to
totally bypass ADFS and use an Amiga disc copier (on an
Amiga of course). The best copier for this task is called
"Amiga Copy" which gives very good results. It should be
set to either "deepcopy 1" or "deepcopy2" and these are
able to copy any format of disc. The program itself is
rubbish and is not exactly userfriendly, but it is results
that count.

EXEL - Actually, the best copiers for this are D-Copy (v1
or v2) and X-Copy (v6+). If you select nibble copy on
either of these, you will have no problems, although Dr.
Doggie's idea still stands (and is very good). These will
copy ANYTHING.
Rememeber, this should not be used to pirate copyrighted
software, and should only be used to make personal
