<<<< What >>>>
XCLONE is a disk/directory copying tool that easily lets you duplicate
entire disks or directory trees. I primarily use it to move operating
systems when upgrading to a larger hard drive. It is also useful for backing
up to another hard drive or saving programs before installing a new version.
XCLONE has been in use for two years during which I copied over a hundred
drives without any loss of data. It is simple and robust. I tested XCLONE
with MSDOS, DRDOS, Windows 3.1, Windows for Workgroups 3.11, Windows 95,
Windows 98, Windows NT 3.51 and Windows NT 4.0 XCLONE preserves long file
names when copying under Windows 9x and Windows NT 4.0 XCLONE copies and
preserves the attributes on all hidden and system files/directories and
maintains time stamps. Thus, the copied drive is an exact clone of the
original. Typing XCLONE with no parameters will print a usage screen
explaining the command line switches.
<<<< Installation >>>>
Copy XCLONE.EXE to your hard drive somewhere along the PATH. A good
place for DOS / Windows 3.x users is to put it in C:\DOS. A good place for
Windows 9x users is in C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND.
<<<< How to Copy a Hard Drive >>>>
The first part of these instructions assume that you know how to connect
a second hard drive to your system, partition it, format it and make it
bootable. If not, do not despair, details follow.
1) If you are running Windows 3.x, exit to DOS.
-- or --
1) If you are running Windows 9x or NT close all open programs. Your taskbar
should show no running programs. This includes programs in the system tray.
You can close these by right clicking on each mini-icon and choosing Close or
Exit. Start a DOS box by clicking on Start, Programs, MSDOS Prompt.
2) Assuming the new hard drive is letter D: and the original is letter C:,
enter the command:
XCLONE C: D:
That's it. First XCLONE sizes the drive, then it copies, displaying a
progress percentage as it goes. XCLONE verifies each file on the
destination drive after copying it, thus ensuring a safe copy. Any file that
can't be copied is indicated with an error message. Windows 9x users will
notice that one file, WIN386.SWP, isn't copied because Windows locks this
swap file for its exclusive use. This is not a problem as this temporary .............................. ...
