Copy from Fat32 to fat16

[serkanb]

I have a backup on fat32 filesystem. When I tried copy them to another fat16 disk, I couldn't read the files correctly.

There is WinME on source harddisk and DOS 6.22 on destination harddisk. To copy process I used WinME on source harddisk. After copy process I reboot from destination harddisk (DOS 6.22). But I couldn't see my files correctly.

What's wrong here?
How can I copy my backup files?

Dos 6.22 doesn't recognise the long filenames that ME or WIN95-OSR2 and above use, you will need to either rename them to standard 8.3 filenames or use a utility such as Ztree which will do it for you.
