ELITE SERIES USER MANUAL CP/M ENHANCEMENTS

Since you, no doubt, entered the command cor-

rectly and received the response which would be

correct for whichever type of drive you have as

drive B:, simply press:

and PROFILE will update the current operating

CP/M so that it recognizes drive B: as whatever

drive B: should he.

After PROFILE updates the CP/M system, it will

return to the asterisk (“*”) prompt. To get out

of PROFILE, type (without <RE,TURN>):

<CTRL -C>

CP/M will respond with “A>”.

Unlike Apple DOS’s “INIT” command, CP/M’s FORMAT

does not place a copy of the operating system

(in this case, CP/M) onto the newly formatted

diskette. This task is left up to the COPY

utility, which will place a copy of CP/M onto an

existing diskette without altering any other

information on the diskette. Since that is what

you will want to do now, type:

COPY<RETURN>

to get the new COPY utility running.
