FUNCTION

Copies one or more AMOS logical disks to a recordable CD media in a supported CD-recorder.

CDs created with MAKACD can be used for software distribution or for system backups. Using

a 4 speed CD-recorder it only takes about 15 minutes to record an entire 600MB CD. CD's

created with MAKACD can be easily read after mounting the CD with the ACD program.

CHARACTERISTICS

MAKACD copies logical AMOS disk drives onto a recordable or rewritable CD in a format that

is compatible with the Alpha Micro ACD program. An ACD compatible CD can contain up to

approximately 600 megabytes of data. MAKACD creates a logical drive structure on the CD

media such that each logical drive is equal in size to the largest logical disk drive copied. If

logical drives of differing sizes are specified, the smaller drives will be padded on the CD to

equal to the largest logical size copied. Only entire logical drives, including unused areas, can be

copied to the CD. Rewritable CDs may be erased and reused.

When recording to a blank CD, MAKACD will start recording at the beginning of the CD and

use only as much space as required to hold the desired data. The Table of Contents will normally

be written and the CD can then be used with the ACD program.

When recording to a partially recorded CD, MAKACD will start recording at the first available

unrecorded location on the CD. Normally, all of the desired data will be recorded and then extra

filler will be recorded followed by the ACD special sector. Finally, the Table of Contents will

normally be recorded and the newly recorded data can then be used with the ACD program. If

you record data on a previously recorded CD, ACD will use the newly recorded information and

ignore all data that was previously placed on the CD.

MAKACD uses the available user memory for data buffers in order to continue supplying data to

the CD-recorder while other system or multi-user activity occurs. Excessive system or multi-user

activity can still interfere with the steady flow of data to the CD-recorder, causing fatal recording

errors.
