Reformatting a Hard Disk
If a logical partition has already been generated on the hard disk, partitioning and
initialization (RDISK) are unnecessary. Proceed as follows:
1. Start the CLI locally on the M7-300 or M7-400 or via the remote terminal
interface.
2. Enter the following commands:
DISMOUNT (this step is necessary only when the partition to be formatted is
mounted; see B.11)
FORMAT C: (see B.15)
RDISK (see B.25)
Formatting Diskettes
Diskettes are formatted with the CLI command FORMAT (see Section B.15).
5.3 Hard Disk Partitioning Program HDPART
You can use the hard disk partitioning program HDPART to partition your hard disk.
Start
Under the CLI, you need enter only the file name and the path to the program to
start the program, for example:
C:BIN\HDPART
Operator Prompting
The program is menu-assisted. An input menu consists of input fields. You can go
from one input field to the next with <TAB>. An input field can be edited with the
Backspace key and deleted with <Ctrl>+<X>. Press <Esc> to rescind all entries
and return to the preceding menu.
