- CDOSCOPY operates as a literal copy utility. The disks are
- first logged in and then the program flow (and constants) are
- adjusted to reflect the number of logical blocks on the disk
- (its storage capability). With S/D S/S disks it operates on all
- tracks, but with all others does not necessarily transfer the
- boot loader.
- It has not been tested with 5" disks and the code will need
- minor mods to effect their copy. These mods should take 5 or 10
- minutes.

- Notes by Chuck Weingart:
-
- To change to 5" disks do the following:
- 1. Change ITRK if desired, change LTRK to 39, the largest track.
- 2. Find the string "1BH" and change to "13H", the max sectors/
- track + 1.
- 3. Find SDMAP, at the end of the program, and change the table
- to an appropriate skew for 5". I suggest 1,6,11,16,3,8,13,18,
- 5,10,15,2,7,12,17,4,9,14
-
- To change to a different memory capacity:
- Find the string "-8000H" and change to a value that is within
- the user area of your CDOS. 8000H is 32K, and will require at
- least a 48K CDOS. If you dont know how much space you have in
- your system, use the value given by CDOSGEN as the start of
- CDOS, and round it downward at least to the nearest multiple
- of 1000H.
