If the disk media is unformatted, you must format it before you
can create partitions. To do this, follow the instructions on the
screen. Read the afdisk online Help, which explains the available
formatting options.
If you select a removable-media device with a diskette format,
such as a magneto-optical (MO) device, afdisk asks if you want to
delete the diskette format. Select No, unless you want to
reformat the media in a different format.
If the disk media is formatted, afdisk displays information about
the selected physical drive in the lower left corner of the screen,
as shown in the following figure. The following table shows the
translation schemes used by Adaptec SCSI host adapters.
Drive Capacity Translation Scheme Number of Cylinders
Less than 1 GByte 64 heads, 32 sectors per
track Equal to number of MBytes of
available capacity
Greater than 1 GByte 255 heads 63 sectors per
track One cylinder per 8 MBytes of
available capacity
Partitions that currently exist on the drive appear in the upper
right corner of the screen. (The example shown in the previous
figure has no partitions.) Select a partition with the Up and
Down Arrow keys (
↑
or
↓
). To delete a partition, press Del and
select Yes at the prompt.
3. To create a new partition, press Ins. The following screen
