Rich,
  Just attrib the system files:
attrib -h -s a:ibm*.com
 Zip all the files to your hard drive
pkzip -arp c:dos11.zip a:*.*
 reattrib the system files
attrib +h +s a:ibm*.com
 and then sent the zip file to him by e-mail

 He can then format a 360K disk and copy the files to it and
 reattrib the system files.
 Boot with that disk and format a 320K disk.
 Attrib the system files and copy all of the files to the 320K disk
 Reattrib the system files.
 (I would make sure that the two system files were copied to a new disk
 before any of the other files and in the same order that they were
 on the original disk)

 That should work "in theory".

 My version 1.1 is a backup and I'm not sure if it contains any extra
files. How does this directory listing compare to your disk?

 Volume in drive A has no label
 Directory of A:\
