SUMMARY
=======

In MS-DOS 6.22, the SYS, FORMAT /S, and SETUP /F commands do not copy
DBLSPACE.BIN to the target disk because MS-DOS 6.22 does not include
DBLSPACE.BIN.

MORE INFORMATION
================

If you are running DoubleSpace with MS-DOS 6.22, you should manually copy the
DBLSPACE.BIN file to any boot disk created using SYS, FORMAT /S, or SETUP /F. To
do this:

1. Create the boot disk.

2. Copy DBLSPACE.BIN from the directory that contains your MS-DOS files
  (typically C:\DOS) to the boot disk. For example, type "copy
  c:\dos\dblspace.bin a:" (without the quotation marks) at the MS-DOS command
  prompt and then press ENTER.
