- I have backed up D:\*.* with Msdos backup to discs.
-
- On my own machine I got no D: partition.
- I'd like to have the backed up files in C:\tmp
-
- CD to tmp and restore A: C: won't work.
-
- With DOS 5.0 I'd enter subst d: c:\tmp and change to
- D: and the restore works (and so I did it in the end).
-
- The problem with OS/2 2.0 is, subst works only in a
- dos shell and restore works only in an os/2 shell :-(
-
- So could someone tell IBM to fix this problem, please.
-
- BTW, It would be very nice if every OS/2 text mode program
- could understand /H or /?
