QSYSGEN
is
a uti l
ity
routine
used
to
put
a system
image
on
the system tracks of a given
logical drive.
QSYSGEN
does
not
destroy
or
alter
any

the destination
diskette,
as
only the system tracks
of
the destination diskette are written.
It

necessary
to
"Sysgen"
only those diskettes
which
are to
be
used

"system" diskettes (i.e., those diskettes
