I had an Apple //e when I was a kid, so I never got to use 3.5" floppies. I have IIgs now that I got from my neighbor, and I've never copied files before. I downloaded Copy II+ from Asimov and wrote it to a 5.25" disk easily enough using ADT.

I tried a File copy of all the Ultima V files to a 3.5" ProDOS floppy. It seemed to copy OK, but I get the "Could not load ProDOS" error when I try to boot form it.

I have never done this before, so I'm flying blind. Is it even possible to copy Ultima V to a 3.5" floppy? Or how about a HDD should I ever get a SCSI card?

Just wondering. Wanted to increase boot times and stuff for Ultima.
