Afternoon All from Sunny Melbourne, Australia
I have the ridiculous situation of ordering CPS for the Australian GP338+ portables. Only 1 order code and they supply it on 4 floppy disks.
Spoke to my dealer, not available on CD was the reply. Stupid rule, every other piece of CPS I have purchased (and that's a lot) has come on CD/
Guess what /\/\, most modern laptops don't even come with a floppy drive anymore. Why release a current tier radio CPS on floppy disks for goodness sake [rant mode now off... sorry]
I thought I would be clever and make 4 seperate directories copy each disk into it's own directory on another machine and then txfr those 4 directories into a USB flash drive. Don't work, starts the first install from directory 1 then craps out.
Am I stuffed here ?
Thanks in advance

G'day Mrtor,
Been there done that.
The disk id file is the one that causes trouble.
Your path is keeps changing.
Install the first part, then while it waits for disk 2 copy the second part into the same directory and so forth.
I've done it with varios programs.
I use a /\/\ ML900 for all my programming and it doesn't have a floppy either.
Hows Melbourne these days.
I was born and raised south of the Yarra, but haven't lived in Oz for a long time now.
