Following to the letters the DMS Hack Disk - Image Heavy,  I got the following error:
Incorrect volume labels found

Partition names  PHTSYS  and NO NAME are incorrect ....

Please reboot and insert a genuine DMS

I am using the latest  bootable Floppy image v1.5

Please help - 20gb dms from factory :'( ???

I did that, no go. Will try manual step

After having some missteps with NO NAME issue, I successfully completed the procedure.
The fix was:

repartition the Genuine DMS using the ALT+F3 screen selecting option 4

if that doesnt work hit ALT+F3 and select option 4.  make sure before you do this you backup your plugin folder as it gets erased as well as everything else on the DMS.  You'll have to go back into windows and reload your firmware to the DMS using the PMM (but be sure to delete the forceupdate and forcesettings files afterward from the PHTSYS partition)
 
Then try the DMS copy again.


Procedure done on a 30gb drive  taken from dead toshiba laptop. Will get a bigger one soon....

When it comes to do the upgrade, the Boot cd iso/ floppy image is definitely your friend

Thanks to everyone here and the pioneers.

On a final note:  PHTSYS is 3/4 smaller than the original one
