6.3.1 Creating Primary DOS Partition:
1.
From the DISK Main Menu, press the [F3] key, Partition
Disk.
2. Press the [F3] key, Create DOS Partition.
3. This initial partition on the disk must contain the DOS
system files so it can self-boot; press the [F3] key, Create
Primary DOS Partition.
4. You will see these window fields:
Maximum number of available cylinders aaa
Maximum cylinders allowed in partition bbb
Enter number of cylinders in partition ccc
Enter starting cylinder of partition ddd
Where:
aaa represents the largest free space on the drive.
bbb
represents the maximum size of a partition. If
the drive is less than 32 megabytes in capacity,
bbb will equal the aaa value; if the drive is larger
than 32 megabytes, bbb will represent the drive
space equivalent to the 32 megabyte limit
imposed by DOS.
ccc represents the number of cylinders you want in
the partition; to make sure the drive can self ­
boot, do not exceed the suggested ccc value.
ddd represents the starting cylinder of the partition;
since you are partitioning the first partition
where yout DOS system files will be stored, the
ddd value should be O.
