Note: To support LBA or LARGE mode of HDDs, there must be some
software involved. All the software is located in the Award HDD
Service Routine (INT 13h). It may fail to access a HDD with LBA
(LARGE) mode selected if you are running under an Operating
System which replaces the whole INT 13h.
UNIX operating systems do not support either LBA or LARGE and must utilize
the Standard mode. UNIX can support drives larger than 528MB.
4-11 HDD Low Level Format
Interleave: Select the interleave number of the hard disk drive you wish to

track.
Start: Press<Y>to start low level format.
