Before you use the Epson internal hard disk, you must do the following

things to prepare it:

l

Use the Format Hard Disk program on your diagnostics diskette to

format the hard disk.

l

Partition the hard disk to run the MS-DOS operating system using the

MS-DOS program FDISK.

l

Format the MS-DOS partition with the MS-DOS program SELECT.

l

Copy the MS-DOS utility programs to the hard disk using SELECT

For instructions on running the diagnostics program, see your Diagnos-

tics manual. For instructions on how to use the MS-DOS programs, refer to

your MS-DOS manual. If you plan to use an operating system other than
MS-DOS, you also need to use that operating system to partition the hard

disk and copy the system files to it.

Note: Your MS-DOS manual states that you need to run the Setup pro-

gram on the diagnostics diskette before you format the hard disk, but

you do not do this on the Equity I+.
