You'll find PIP.ABS, SYSCMD.SYS, RGT.SYS, GRT.SYS and hopefully some of the rest of HDOS. INIT37.ABS is a soft-sector floppy initialization program, but I'm not sure if your soft-sectored controller is an H37. With INIT37.ABS or its equivalent for you controller and SYSGEN.ABS you should be able to copy your boot disk.</DIV></BODY></HTML>
