To install from a standard floppy disk, a file copy utility is required. I've used the System Utilities program on both the II and /// to recursively move the files over. Here is how the floppy images map to fixed disk directories:
The floppy file layout looks like:
```
PLASMA2-SYS.PO -> /HARDDISK - System modules
PLASMA2-FPSOS.PO -> /HARDDISK - Floating point and Apple /// system modules

PLASMA2-DEM.PO -> /HARDDISK/DEMOS - Demo modules
PLASMA2-INET.PO -> /HARDDISK/SYS - TCP/IP modules, drivers and utilities
```
To install from a standard floppy disk, the PLASMA file utilities can be used to copy the files. Boot the PLASMA-SYS floppy, then to install to ```'/HARDDISK'``` used in this example:
```
+COPY -R /PLASMA.SYS/* /HARDDISK
```
To copy the floating point modules:
```
+COPY -R /PLASMA.FPSOS/SYS /HARDDISK
```
To copy the TCP/IP modules:
```
+COPY -R /PLASMA.INET/* /HARDDISK
```
For the build environment and demos, you first need to create their respective directories:
```
+NEWDIR /HARDDISK/BLD
+NEWDIR /HARDDISK/DEMOS
```
Insert the PLASMA2-BLD floppy and type:
```
+COPY -R /PLASMA.BLD/* /HARDDISK/BLD
```
After the copying is done, insert the PLASMA2-DEM floppy in the drive and type:
```
+COPY -R /PLASMA.DEMOS/* /HARDDISK/DEMOS
```
The system is now installed.
## Apple II 800K image
There is a 800K disk image, `PLASMA.2mg`, that has a full, bootable installation of PLASMA and the EDASM assembler. This makes for a complete development environment. It can be booted as-is, or copied en-mass to fixed disk.
