Use copyiipc 5.0 to do it for you. I used this on a friend's
printshop program. She had bought the program to use on her ps/2 but it
only came with 5.25 floppy, and it would not run off of her drive B. It
wanted to be booted from drive a: (at least until I could use the hard
drive installation program that came with it).
The copy created by copyiipc on 3.5 in disk worked fine on drive
A:, we were able to boot from it and install the program.
I bought copyiipc from Telemart for a paltry $18.
