Before you use the Epson internal hard disk, you must do the following
things to prepare it:
l
Use the Format Hard Disk program on your diagnostics diskette to
format the hard disk.
l
Partition the hard disk to run the MS-DOS operating system using the
MS-DOS program FDISK.
l
Format the MS-DOS partition with the MS-DOS program SELECT.
l
Copy the MS-DOS utility programs to the hard disk using SELECT
For instructions on running the diagnostics program, see your Diagnos-
tics manual. For instructions on how to use the MS-DOS programs, refer to
your MS-DOS manual. If you plan to use an operating system other than
MS-DOS, you also need to use that operating system to partition the hard
disk and copy the system files to it.
Note: Your MS-DOS manual states that you need to run the Setup pro-
gram on the diagnostics diskette before you format the hard disk, but
you do not do this on the Equity I+.
