❑
The program scans the drive for tracks that have
already been marked as bad and adds them to the bad
track table.
❑
Each track is reformatted using the current interleave
value.
❑
Each track in the bad track table is reformatted as
bad so that it cannot be used.
❑
The program performs a surface analysis on the
media, reformats any additional bad tracks as bad,
and adds them to the list.
Using this option is equivalent to performing a
SCAN FOR
BAD TRACKS
command (
F5
), followed by a
FORMAT
UNFORMATTED DRIVE
command ( F7 ), followed by an
ANALYZE HARD DISK
operation ( F6 ). The only differences are
that all three operations are done automatically, and the
surface analysis performed is not as thorough or as
time-consuming as that performed when you select
F6
.
If the bad track table from the manufacturer is available
when the reformat of the drive is done, enter that map
before this operation is performed. This ensures that all
tracks in that list are reformatted as bad regardless of
whether or not they are found by the
SCAN FOR BAD TRACKS
operation.
After Formatting is Complete
The
HARD DISK FORMAT
commands perform low-level
formatting operations on hard disks. After these operations
are complete, insert the
MS-DOS Disk 1 floppy into the
floppy drive, and reboot the computer. Follow the
instructions displayed to install
MS-DOS
and utilities. If you
are using another operating system, see its documentation
for formatting and installation instructions.
