2. To create and format an MS-Flash read/write partition, select 1 from the menu. A
Create and Format a New Partition screen, such as the following, appears:
Current memory card slot: 1
Letter
---------------------------------------------------------
D
If the card already has one MS-Flash partition, the following message appears at the
bottom of the screen:
This card has already been formatted.
Creating a partition will destroy all the data on the card.
Do you want to continue? (Y/N) [N]
Create a new partition only if you have backed up all the data that you want to save.
To continue, type "Y", and press ENTER.
3. If the card is unformatted or has one large partition, the following message appears:
Do you want to use the entire card for MS-Flash? (Y/N) [Y]
To create and format one large partition, type "Y", and press ENTER; to create and
format a partition that occupies only part of a memory card, type "N", and press
ENTER.
4. This step is only if you are creating a partition that will occupy only part of the Flash
device: Specify the size of the partition you want to create, and press ENTER. The
minimum size depends on the amount of free space available on the memory card. The
number that appears on your screen is the largest amount of available space.
5. Specify the number of spare blocks that MS-Flash should reserve for memory card
cleanup, and press ENTER. The default is 1. Although reserving extra blocks may
speed up the memory card slightly, you will not be able to use the reserved blocks for
files. The default is recommended.
6. Specify a volume label for the partition, and press ENTER. If you do not want to
specify a volume label, leave the field blank, and press ENTER.
