>dSync works. XCOPY doesn't.

Peter,

Above remembered and found; used for my needs and I am very happy. Below
is my posting to the MR/2 ICE for OS/2 mailing list.

zzzzzzz
Over the years, attempts/requests for running MR/2 ICE for OS/2 from CDs
have failed.

I just used dsync to copy one of my MR/2 ICE for OS/2 archives to a
Sandisk USB cruzer mini 256 MB flash drive (USB 1.1 compatabile). Running
that archive from said USB flash drive on my ThinkPad T30 with eCS 1.2 GA
which does not have MR/2 ICE without problems.

Read about dsync at:
http://zuko.mitm.ru/soft/dsync_en.html
which also has the latest version 0.1.6z at:
http://zuko.mitm.ru/files/dsync016z.zip

COPY from EF Commander 2.32 and XCOPY /H/O/T/S/E/R/V had problems copying
my archive which was not running when copied. Of course this was the
first time that I used dsync - referenced from a post on the SCOUG help
mailing list by Peter Skye on a non-MR/2 ICE issue. I apparently deleted
some saved files on the USB flash drive when I copied my MR/2 ICE archives
- I have backups but not for the Windows "programs" which originally came
with the USB flash drive. Well if further testing holds up I plan to get
the 1 GB Sandisk USB flash drive (USB 1.1 compatable) - largest USB flash
disk currently available; so please be careful if also new to dync.

Purchase of these USB flash drives can be made at:

I have not seen mentioned on the MR/2 ICE mailing lists. Hope this is
useful to others.

zzzzzzzz

Regards.

Larry
