Message-ID: <680@studsys.mu.edu> Date: 14 Nov 89 22:30:08 GMT Reply-To: buchho@studsys.UUCP (buchho) Organization: Marquette University - Milwaukee, Wisconsin Lines: 16 Recently, I've picked up a 10 Mb Sider, 'bout 3-4 years old. Today, I went thru its utilities in the attempt to find something that will allow me to format it ONLY in ProDOS. Currently, only 8 Mb or so is allocated to TWO ProDOS volumes, the rest is split among CP/M, Dos 3.3, and Pascal. I use neither of these three. What I'm wondering is if there's a way to defeat these defaults and format the entire 10 Mb with one ProDOS volume. Would it be possible to modify the Parameters Sector in some way? Is there more current utility software? An updated ROM perhaps? -- [][][][][][][][][][][][][][]______________________________________________ [] Jacob S.
