The next step is to create a system diskette

which gives you the full storage capability of

the drive you will be using as drive A:. If you

will be using a Disk ][ as drive A:, then you

can simply read through all the steps up to the

rebooting of the system. Continue following the

instructions right after the point where the

system is rebooted.

The first step in creating a system diskette for

your higher capacity Elite drive is to format a

diskette for the drive to use when it starts

operating in a higher capacity way. Since you

higher capacity diskettes. To get the new

FORMAT started, type:

FORMAT<RETURN>

Once CP/M loads it in, FORMAT will respond with:
