The message “Remove disk from floppy drive” is displayed. Remove the IBM
DriveGuide diskette and click “Okay”. The installation is now complete. If EZ-BIOS
was installed and you are rebooting to a diskette, see the important note below.

IMPORTANT: If EZ-BIOS was installed during IBM DriveGuide installation, you must allow EZ-
BIOS to load in memory prior to booting to a floppy. If you do not perform the floppy boot process
below your drive’s capacity and partitions will be unavailable.

Boot your system to the hard drive to load EZ-BIOS in memory. EZ-BIOS displays this message:

EZ-BIOS: Initializing...

EZ-BIOS: Hold the CTRL key down for Status Screen or to boot

from floppy...

Press the CTRL key. A status screen is displayed.
Insert the boot diskette and press A to boot from a floppy.
