Organizing Your Hard Disk
This section provides you with a sample directory structure for
use with your hard disk. It will provide step-by-step instructions
that will create several files and subdirectories.
First, make sure your hard disk is formatted, and that the active
MS-DOS routines have been loaded into the system area of
your hard disk. The easiest way to check this is to boot the
system from the hard disk. Make sure that floppy drive A is
empty and turn your computer on. After going through the
start-up diagnostic routines, the computer will look at the A
drive to find the MS-DOS install diskette. Since the drive is
empty, it will then look at the hard disk drive. If the hard disk
drive is installed and formatted correctly, the system will boot
up and display MS-DOS shell screen.
If your system does not boot up from the hard disk, refer to the
previous section, “Formatting Your Hard Disk” for
instructions.
Assuming MS-DOS has booted correctly from the hard disk,
select the Command Prompt option from the DOS Shell
menu. When you see the system prompt:
c>
you are ready to begin.
First, you will create several subdirectories. These will be used
shortly to contain useful files. Begin by entering the command:
C>MD DOS4
