The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft MS-DOS operating system versions 6.2, 6.22
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This information applies to both Microsoft DoubleSpace and Microsoft
DriveSpace. For MS-DOS 6.22, use DRVSPACE in place of DBLSPACE for commands
and filenames.
SYMPTOMS
========
MIRROR may return the following error message when you try to use it on a small
DoubleSpace-compressed drive:
Drive D: error.
The boot sector for this drive is incompatible with the MIRROR command. The
mirror process was unsuccessful.
CAUSE
=====
This problem occurs only if you try to use MIRROR on a very small (approximately
1-megabyte) DoubleSpace-compressed drive that you created by running DBLSPACE
/CREATE (or by choosing Create New Drive from the Compress menu in the
DoubleSpace maintenance program).
RESOLUTION
==========
To work around this problem, run Mirror on the host for the compressed drive. To
determine which drive is your host drive, type "dblspace /list" (without the
quotation marks) at the MS-DOS command prompt and then press ENTER.
