Hi Don,
Assume you have a full copy of OpenDR-DOS 7.03.
The OpenDR-DOS 7.03 *diskcopy.com* can copy disk-->*.img|*.bin e.g.
BOOTIMG.BIN
and vice versa. Just copy the bootable floppy in A: to a HDD-based
BOOTIMG.BIN with syntax
DISKCOPY A: :\BOOTIMG.BIN, whilst booted to OpenDR-DOS 7.03!
You can verify it with OpenDRDOS 7.03 DISKCOMP.COM
No need to bother with other tools!
