LOCK.COM
Use this utility to enable or disable write protection on ßash or RAM drives. (This is the
software equivalent of the write-protect tab on a ßoppy disk.) You can use LOCK to pro-
tect against accidental erasure of all Þles stored on the ßash disk.
Whenever the PDT 3200 is rebooted, write protection on a drive will be disabled, which is
the default state. To lock the drive upon bootup, include a LOCK command in the AU-
TOEXEC.BAT Þle on drive C.
Syntax
LOCK [ drive :] [/l] [/u] [/y]
Options
drive
SpeciÞes the drive letter of the drive which is to be locked or unlocked. If you do not spec-
ify a drive letter, the current drive is used.
/l (the letter L)
Lock the ßash drive to prevent further disk writes.
/u
Unlocks the ßash drive, allowing further disk writes.
/y
Suppresses output from being sent to the display.
Note:
If both the /l and /u options are given, the last option
speciÞed will take effect.
