To jasongins:
Just select the icon for the Workbench disk, then choose Duplicate from the Workbench menu. The instructions start on page 3-14 in your Amiga 500 manual. You MUST use a DS/DD disk NOT a HD disk. You can buy DS/DD disks on eBay. I just bought 50 more of them for myself. If you need any more help, just email me directly. :-D
