FDISK and Format Disk Utility
The DIGITAL HiNote System CD is a bootable CD. It boots to
the A:\ prompt. In the following instructions we will be running
the FDISK Utility on a 1.44 GB hard drive.
1. Insert the DIGITAL HiNote System CD into the CD-
ROM tray. The CD should boot to the A:\ prompt. At
the A:\ type FDISK the command line should read
A:\FDISK.
Press <Enter>.
2. This will execute the FDISK utility. When asked if you
want to enable enlarged disk support, choose [No]. If
you choose [Yes], you will not be able to install WinNT
or a Win95 non-SR2 operating system.
3. At the FDISK Main Menu, choose 1 to create a DOS
partition or logical DOS drive. To choose this option,
type the number 1 and press <Enter>.
4. Choose 1 again to create a primary DOS partition by
typing 1 and pressing <Enter>.
5. If you wish to make the whole hard drive one large
partition, press <Enter> to accept the default Yes.
Continue to press the <esc.> key until you have exited
FDISK and are at the DOS prompt. Restart the system
by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del. Proceed to step 16. If you
wish to create multiple partitions on the hard drive, press
the N key (signifying No) and then press <Enter>.
Proceed to step 6.
6. FDISK will inform you of the approximate space
available on the hard drive and prompts you to enter the
percent of disk space or the number of MB you wish to
assign for the primary partition. For the purpose of this
example, we have chosen to assign drive C: 500 MB.
