Hi all
I need a boot disk on floppy disk that has to have the xcopy.exe on
it, the one I need has to have the xcopy switch of: /e /c /i /h /k
the one I have just tried to use only has /e
the /e /c /i /h /k is needed ie /c is to keep copying even if there is
an error
im using it to copy two hdd's to another hdd and then use it for what
i need to do, and I know one of the hdd's has lots of currupt files
hence the /c switch to keep it going when it gets to these files.
