In windows, use the copy COPY command with the /b parameter to indicate its a binary file.

copy /b file1.bin + file2.bin "file1-2.bin"

The plus sign concatenates (merges) the two (binary with /b) files into the specified output called file1-2.bin in the same directory.

In Linux on an unix shell

cat file1 file2 file3 file4 > target_file

You double up on the original file by merging it with itself with copy/b bios4.bin+bios4.bin=bios4x2.bin
Then after you create bios4x2.bin you will repeat the above syntax which would be
copy/b bios4x2.bin+bios4x2.bin=bios4x4.bin
bios4x4.bin is the file you burn to a 4002 or 4096
