This should read something like that:
mkdir $USER_INSTALL_DIR$$\$DEF"
copy "$USER_INSTALL_DIR$$\$ra.dll" "$USER_INSTALL_DIR$$\$DEF$\$ra.dll"
There is no such thing as $//$, only $\$ or $/$ is a valid option. And by the way I strongly urge you to read the InstallAnywhere manual. You're doing things in this .bat file that can be natively done in IA (like a folder creation, and copying a .dll into it).
