Partitioning and formatting your drive

One drive:
For a quick installation, use the Disk Manager software to parti-
tion and format your Seagate drive. Disk Manager also ensures
that your computer can access the full capacity of your hard
drive. See "Installation using Disk Manager" on page 13.
You can also use the FDISK.EXE command. See "Standard
DOS installation" on page 15.

•
Boot your computer from the Windows 95 or Windows 98
startup diskette with the CD-ROM loaded.
•
Note the drive letter for your CD-ROM device.
•
At the A: prompt, type x: setup, where x is the letter of your
CD-ROM drive.
•
Continue with the Windows setup instructions.

You can use Disk Manager to install an additional drive. See
"Installation using Disk Manager" on page 13.
To add a slave drive without using Disk Manager, use the
FDISK.EXE command. See "Standard DOS installation" on page
15.
To add a slave drive using Windows 95 or Windows 98:
