Well, you could try to copy the entire disc with XCopy (/S or /E) and then
try things on your own HD with the other detatched (on BIOS level).
DoubleSpace was absent in 6.2 if I remember correctly and reappeard in 6.22
as DriveSpace. M$ had *stolen* the code for the compression or something
simular, so they needed to remove it, then paid 50 million $ for the code
(if I remember the numbers correctly, *don't* take this as a fact!)
