## Comments:

      MIRROR stores a copy of the boot sector, FAT tables, and root
      directory in a "storage location" near the end of the disk.
      By using the /partn switch with the mirror command you can
      save a backup of the partition tables to a partnsav.fil on
      the a: drive.
      Note: The mirror image created by this program is only recoverable
      by using the UNFORMAT program for FreeDOS.
