			=== Partitioning and formatting the hard disk ===

			Boot from our CP/M 2.2 work disk (HDFORMAT.COM does not appear to work under CP/M Plus),
			with the HD20 enabled, and hard disk image mounted.

			At the A> prompt, type '''hdformat''', and press Enter. You will be given the option of doing a low-level format, a high-level format, or quit.

			First press L to do a low-level format. This creates the partition table, providing four
			5MB partitions (both X-DDOS and CP/M refer to them as drives D, E, F and G).

			Press Y to confirm, and then Space to create the partition table.

			Next, press H to do a high-level format, press D to format drive D, then Y to confirm, and
			then Space to start formatting. Repeat this for each of the drives, then press Q to quit.

			Now you can test it by copying some files to drive D. Resetting the system to go back to
			BASIC, you should be able to list files you copied by entering \|dir,"d:", and it should report
			about 5MB of free space.
