Wrt & Vrfy: Write and verify command. Controller will write a few data
patterns to the drive and verify each pattern.
Verify: The controller will verify the data integrity of the drive.
LockDefect: Lock defect command will take the defect list information on the
screen and map out those defects from the drive. They are formatted as bad
sectors.
Scan-N: This option will scan the entire disk and create the defect list structure
compatible with Novell.
4.2 Disk Partitioning and High Level Format
After the drive has been successfully low level formatted, the operating system needs
to be installed. For most users, run the FDISK program first; then run the FORMAT
program under DOS. DOS 3.3 and below have a partitioning limit of 32MBytes per
drive partition. Using third party disk partitioning software will overcome this
limitation. Consult your DOS manual for installing the operating system.
4.3 Novell and COMPSURF
A feature to speed up and ease Novell COMPSURF installation is provided. This
UltraStor feature enables the user to perform Novell COMPSURF in minutes rather
than hours. After the disk has been prepared using the "-N" options (in the
AutoFormat or Primitive field), run COMPSURF and answer the questions as
described below:
Format the Disk
No
Maintain the Current Media Defect List Yes
Number of Sequential Passes 1
Number of I/O Random Test "Enter" To Use Default
Are the Parameters Correct Yes
After COMPSURF has initialized track 0, the user may press Alt + F10 to terminate
the lengthy scanning process. Continue by executing Netgen to install Novell.
For additional details on Novell Installation, please refer to the Appendix Section of
this installation guide.
