you ran FORMAT. Instead it will be the “others

drive depending upon the drive from which FORMAT

was ran.

For instance, if FORMAT was run from drive 1,

<d> would be 2. If FORMAT was run from drive 2,

<d> would be 1. If FORMAT was run from drive 3

(Elite Controller), <d> would be 4. And last

but not least, if FORMAT was run from drive 4,

<d> would be 3.

The reason which FORMAT shuffles the drive num-

ber is because it assumes your system diskette

is the one from which FORMAT was run, and there-

fore the obvious default would be the “other

drive.

If the drive number displayed is correct, simply

type (RETURN>. If you wish to use a different

drive, simply type the drive number without any

(RETURN> following it.

After you’ve entered a drive number, FORMAT will

ask:

TYPE OF FORMAT TO PERFORM (0-3)? <t>

0)APPLE DISK-II ( 35 TRACKS)

1)RANA ELITE ONE ( 40 TRACKS)

2) RANA ELITE TWO ( 80 TRACKS)

3) RANA ELITE THREE (160 TRACKS)

The <t> is the type for which the drive is

defined under the currently in use DOS.

FORMAT is requesting the type of format which

you wish it to perform. The format type can be

P a g e 9 - 6
