PC Doc bootable floppy
Does anybody know a way to create a bootable floppy for PC Doc Service Center 7.5? We would like to make floppy image to include on our bootable diag cd and also have a floppy for older systems. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Kirk Miller

Re: PC Doc bootable floppy
Problem solved! Since PC-Doctor uses Caldera Dr Dos instead of msdos the bootcode is looking for different files than the usual suspects (io.sys, msdos.sys, etc.). I was able to find a boot disk based off of Caldera here:
http://digi.rpc1.org/dos.htm
.
From there I read the disk created with the downloaded file and used Winimage to create an .ima file. I changed the disk format to 2.88MB and copied all the files off the usb dongle to the .ima file created in Winimage. Works like a champ!

Gotta love it when a tech answers his own questions. Good job!
