for instance, can I copy the data from a disk in df1: to a folder on my hard drive or ram drive, say ram:T/, if so, whats the command line for that?
That would be:
Code:
diskdoctor copy df1: ram:T/
You might want to tell Disk Doctor to check what's up with the disk first, though, to get an idea of what to expect:
Code:
diskdoctor examine df1:
Please note that examining the disk/partition is the default operating mode for the new Disk Doctor.

If you have it, I strongly recommend using Disk Doctor 2.161 from the AmigaOS 3.1.4.1 update since it fixes a significant (and hard to find!) bug in the program which might otherwise impact the usefulness of the program...
