I can't remember if procomm/telix/etc can do a recursive copy of a
whole drive in one go, but kermit can ..

But how do you get anything (kermit) ON to the PC 1512?

One advantage of going the laplink option is that it allows remote
install so you run it on the new machine, then send it via the serial
link to the old one.

Here is the full procedure including links to download a suitable
version of laplink, and instructions for running the new end in DOSBox
rather than using a DOS boot image directly:

Thanks for that link. The old PC has Laplink already.

Easy then - you could even send that to the virtual new one using the
same process.
