MIRROR records information about the disk, such as the boot sector,
file allocation table and root directory for possible data recovery.

MIRROR [/?]
Options:
drive Saves UNFORMAT information to a drive letter, e.g. X:

recovery via UNFORMAT /PARTN.

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.
Examples:
mirror d:
mirror /partn
