This is from memory so it may not be exactly right  ;-)

Boot up from workbench.

Put in the disc you want to backup - Only DOS formatted discs will work this way - most games won't.

Click on the disc icon you want to copy.

Goto the top menu and look for copy. Select copy.

Follow the on screen prompts after that.

I think that's it.

You could if you've got 2 floppy drives. My way works for a single drive.

The thing you have to watch with my way is that it sticks 'copy of' in front of the original disc name on the copy  :lol:

Or of course you could just use an old fashioned nibble copier (such as synchro express or similar) and that way you could back up any disc  :-)
