Message-ID: <14787@shemp.CS.UCLA.EDU> Date: 28 Jul 88 16:29:55 GMT Sender: news@CS.UCLA.EDU Reply-To: cc1@CS.UCLA.EDU (Michael Gersten) Organization: Ucla Computer Club (disclaimer) Lines: 6 Do you need a special formatting program to format large (>1024 cylinder) drives? I have a large drive on order from DDS, but they tell me that the normal operating system will not format >1024 cylinders, and they are trying to get a format program that will. My question: Is this true for 3.0? I have 3.5.1, will it work? Michael
