Software Installation
This section contains instructions for low level formatting the
Winchester drives.
1. Insert our Advanced diagnostic diskette (or equivalent or AT
compatibles).
2. Turn on the power.
3. Boot the diagnostic and select the setup option.
CAUTION
Avoid system damage by consulting your system technical
reference manual to ensure that your Winchester drive type is
supported by the host BIOS drive tables. Not all AT compatibles
share the same drive tables as IBM.
4. Select proper drive type. Consult the technical reference manual for
further information on these parameters.
CAUTION
Step 5 requires execution of low level format. Use of the IBM
Advanced Diagnostic (or similar program for IBM compatibles) is
necessary since these controllers contain no on-board Basic
Input/Output System (BIOS) ROM. Furthermore, the low level
format destroys all data on the drive. If the drive contains useful
data, backup the drive before executing the low level format
program.
5. Insert the Advanced Diagnostic diskette and execute the low level
format.
6. Load and execute the FDISK and FORMAT programs.
