4.7.1.4 Copy Hard Disk File to Floppy Disk
To copy a hard disk file to the floppy disk as shown in Figure 4–37, enter ‘5’ at the Hard
Disk Copy Options menu. If you change your mind about copying a file, simply press
<return>, then you will be prompted to press <return> again.
Note
The Freeway 1100/1150/1200/1300 hard disk uses an MS-DOS file
system. File names must follow the DOS convention of having a
base name of no more than eight characters followed by a period
and an extension of no more than three characters. File names for
the Freeway 1100/1150/1200/1300 are not case sensitive.
Freeway 2000/4000/8800 uses the VxWorks DOS file system long
name support feature. This feature allows the use of file names
longer than MS-DOS’s 8.3 convention. These names can be up to
40 characters long and can be made up of any ASCII characters. In
addition, a period, which in MS-DOS indicates a file-name exten-
sion, has no special significance. File names for the Freeway
2000/4000/8800 are case sensitive.
The file names
bootrom.sys and nvram.txt are reserved for Freeway
1100/1150/1200/1300 use and may not be copied to or from any
disk. If either of these file names is on the hard disk, using * to copy
all files will result in an error when Freeway attempts to copy the
reserved file.
