ELITE SERIES USER MANUAL ENHANCED DOS UTIL.
You can either type one of the menu item letters
without following it with <RETURN> if you don’t
want the default (A), or you can simply press
(RETURN> to accept the default. If this
selection confuses you, simply press <RETURN>
and FORMAT will default to exactly what the INIT
command did.
Since that is the last piece of information
FORMAT needs to know, it will display:
INSERT DISKETTE IN DRIVE. PRESS
<RETURN> TO INITIALIZE, PRESS <ESC>
TO CHANGE PARAMETERS.
This means that FORMAT is ready to proceed with
the formatting and is giving you one last chance
to “bail out”. If you press <RETURN>, FORMAT
will proceed with the diskette format. If you
press <ESC>, FORMAT will return to the “invoke
how?” prompt.
Once FORMAT is allowed to proceed with the
formatting, it will first check to see if the
diskette is already formatted for 76—sectors
(this includes CP/M and Pascal diskettes).
Whether or not FORMAT is successful in detecting
an already formatted diskette is highly
dependent upon how the drive being used is
defined in the current in use DOS, and also how
the already formatted diskette was formatted
originally. Therefore, this test should not be
relied upon.
If FORMAT does find an already formatted
diskette, it will ask:
