Now copy the hidden file c:\boot.ini to a floppy disk or a flash disk (e.g. with "type E:\boot.ini > F:\).



That should be type E:\boot.ini > F:\boot.ini, of course. 




The reason for using TYPE instead of just ordinary COPY, by the way, is that the file has the hidden attribute.  The COPY built-in to Microsoft's CMD won't copy such files.  If you are using a different command interpreter, this is not an issue and you can use COPY.  With 4NT and Take Command, for example, simply use the /H option to COPY to tell it to include hidden and system files, thus: copy /h E:\boot.ini F:\

So it should - thanks for the correction.
