Creating startup floppy disks

You can create Macintosh system software floppy disks from the Workgroup
Server Software
CD-ROM disc. This allows you to have a backup copy of the
system software from which you can start up the server and reinstall the system
software. You need to use the Disk Copy program to make a copy of the
system software. (Dragging system software files to floppy disks does not work
because the Installer expects the files to be in certain places on the floppy disks.)

To copy the software, you’ll need eleven high-density (1.4 megabyte [MB])
floppy disks.

1

Insert the

Workgroup Server Software CD-ROM disc into the CD-ROM drive.

2

Open the folder named “Disk Images” and locate the Disk Copy icon.

You may need to scroll the window to see the icon.

3

Double-click the Disk Copy icon to start the program.

4

Click anywhere on the screen to remove the explanatory dialog box.

The Disk Copy window appears.

5

In the window, click Load Image File.

A dialog box appears, in which you can select the disk image that you want to
copy. Each image file contains the software for one system software disk.
