Re: [exs] making an exact copy

2001-12-01 by Peter Duemmler

At least German law allows you to legally do a backup copy (even on copy protected software).
You are still only allowed to use one installed version at a time, though, but that seems to be
the case with you.

I HAD to do a backup copy of my ESB-CD to even use it (hint: Clone-CD), because the CD
protection of the original CD doesn\ufffdt work with my Plextor CD hardware, the copy works,
though...
I told emagic, but they haven\ufffdt responded yet. I don\ufffdt feel illegal at all...

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
