ELITE SERIES USER MANUAL

CP/M ENHANCEMENTS

files as well as the system tracks will be

erased. Format will normally detect an already

formatted 16 sector disk and ask you to verify

that you want the disk erased. This includes any

DOS 3.3 or Apple Pascal diskettes you may

have had lying around. If you plan on format-

ting an Elite Two or Three diskette (higher

capacity) you should check the Recommended Disk-

ettes section of this manual.

If you’re an Elite Three only user, you may have

noticed that you are about to do a standard

Apple Disk ][ format (which means doing some

writing) on an Elite Three which is only sup-

posed to be read compatible. This is true.

However, since this procedure will not expect a

non—Elite Three to read this diskette, it will

all come out okay in the end.

IMPORTANT! A safe idea before continuing is to

remove the enhanced CP/M master and Enhancements

diskettes (and any other already recorded disk-

ettes) from the drives, but remember to reinsert

them once the formatting has finished.

Once you have a diskette, take out the CP/M

master from drive A: and put in the blank disk-

ette. Then type:

A: <RETURN>

FORMAT will respond with:

Insert disk to be formatted in drive A:
