Select "HARD" at the top of the screen, and press either FORM or ARR, depending on the action

you want to take. Formatting and arranging will both destroy all data on the hard disk -

arranging being a faster operation than a full format (it simply initializes directories into a

format suitable for use by the S1000). Make sure that there is no data which is only stored on

the hard disk which you want to keep. When you press either

FORM or ARR, you will be asked

if you are sure that you want to delete all data on the hard disk. Answer "

NO" if you have had

second thoughts, otherwise answer "

YES". Formatting will take a few minutes, followed by the

arrange process. Bad blocks will be automatically "swapped out" in a verification procedure.

You can bypass this verification process by pressing

SKIP , but it is suggested that you let it

run its course - it will end up safer in the long run.

When you have initialized the hard disk, save the currently-loaded operating system to

Volume 001 of the hard disk, using the

DISK, SAVE, "OPERATING SYSTEM" options. When you

turn on the S1000, this operating system will automatically be loaded from hard disk (quicker

and more convenient than having to use a copy of the system diskette every time). You can

use the Volume

REN function to rename Volume 001 to "Boot Volume" or similar.
