I need some software that will run under DOS 6.22 that will allow me to
copy files to a CD/DVD-ROM Drive. This is on a legacy CNC machine - I'm
replacing a dying Viglen PC where the only exchangeable media is 4.5"
Floppy for a Compac DC7600 SFF PC that I have which also has CD/DVD
read / write drive that would be very handy for data exchange.
NB this is running genuine DOS 6.22 NOT a DOS window under Windoze !
Any pointers very welcome !

Boot a live CD disk and use that to copy the files.
Maybe put a USB card in and use a flash drive rather than a CD.
You can get bootable CDs for linux or windows that will probably work.
How much ram & other resources does a dos6.22 violence have Dennis?
I have no idea how violent it is.
Which version of Linux would you recommend?
I'd try this first
