How to initialize a hard disk
You initialize an Apple SCSI hard disk by using a program called
Drive Setup, which is on the floppy disk labeled Disk Tools that came with
your computer. If your computer came with a CD-ROM drive and you didn’t
receive floppy disks, you can find Drive Setup on the CD-ROM disc that
contains system software. (To initialize a hard disk from another
manufacturer, use the utility software that came with the hard disk.)
1 Start up your computer from the Disk Tools disk or the CD-ROM disc that contains
system software.
See “Starting Up From a CD-ROM Disc” or “Starting Up From a Floppy
Disk” earlier in this section.
2 Open the Drive Setup icon.
You may need to look in a folder called Utilities to find Drive Setup.
3 In the list of drives, click the disk you want to initialize.
4 Click Initialize to initialize the hard disk.
5 Click Quit when you see a message reporting that initialization was successful.
If a message reports that initialization failed, try again. If initialization
fails a second time, take the disk to your Apple-authorized service provider
for repair.
