the the Reference diskette and insert a blank diskette before
running the test. You see these messages:

Make sure the blank diskette you prepared is in drive A (1),
then select

each cylinder is tested. For example, with a 1.2MB diskette, the
first message you see is:

in drive A before you select another device from the Device
List.

cannot be detected by a 360KB diskette drive.

checks the selected drive type; if it is a 360KB drive, you see
these messages:

drive.
