Floppy disks with different functions—for example, if I copy the three files ntldr, ntdetect.com, and boot.ini from XP onto a floppy to make an XP boot disk, it only uses 1,200K. Since it’s so small, I want to use the space more reasonably. So if I copy these three files onto Rising’s DOS antivirus disk, the space would be just right—but then the antivirus function and the boot function on that disk should still both work separately, right? (I guess this is really a super newbie topic, hehe. :) Could you give me a suggestion on how to use the space more reasonably? Before, I always used one disk for one function, so it feels like too many disks are being wasted. Even 2,300K ends up costing me one whole disk. Thanks!

Yes... there’s no problem with that at all... Rising’s DOS antivirus disk has an automatic batch file, just ignore it. It won’t affect anything.

Mm, another mystery cleared up. Thanks, expert. So in short, the answer is that I can put several, even 10-plus pieces of software for DOS onto one disk until it’s full, and they can still all be used normally. Thanks again!

It probably can’t boot! The reason is very simple! The 2 disks both have their own boot sectors! If you insist on putting them onto one disk! Then it can only boot one disk! If you absolutely must put everything onto one disk! Go take a look at that boot disk nre made with Linux! That is completely doable!

What I meant was one boot function, and the others are DOS software, not merging two different boot functions into one. I didn’t explain it clearly, thank you.
