SYS (System) COMMAND
Purpose: Transfers the operating system files: PTSDOS.SYS, PTSBIO.SYS (and
COMMAND.COM) to a specified disk, making it bootable.
Syntax: SYS drive: [path][/u[:bootfile]][/p][/s][/c]
Type: External command
Note: The SYS command cannot be used with a network drive.
Parameters:
drive: defines the drive you want to transfer system files to.
[path] defines the path to the system files (and to the
COMMAND.COM, if /c switch is set)
bootfile defines the filename to transfer the contents of the boot
sector to before the installation of the system. This file can
be used by the SYSBOOT configuration command. The default
filename is .\OLDBOOT.SYS. Setting the /U switch renames an old
COMMAND.COM to COMMAND.Co$ (See UNINSTALL).
/p make pauses between read/write operations. It is very important
for system transition using a single drive.
/s do not copy COMMAND.COM.
/c do not use the COMSPEC= environment variable to search for the
COMMAND.COM file.
/u installs PTS-DOS and saves boot-sector of the system,
previousely installed on the disk. Provides the possibility to
choose between several operating systems when loading, makes it
possible to restore the system, installed before PTS-DOS.
