Ealier  versions  of  AppleWorks  (1.2  or so) needed more storage space on the
program  side  than it is available on a disk ][. This was "fixed" by using the
boot  blocks making it impossible to back up file by file to another 5.25" disk
yielding  a working version. Of course, every disk copy program could duplicate
the whole side at once without any problems (no protection).
