Hi all,
At least, I had a successful HD Format.
I used "Format a: /FS:FAT" under XP DOSbox, then "FORMAT
"flp1_name*D"" under QPC2 as suggested. This gave the usual format
"sound" under QPC2 (as known from SQB...). A native format under QPC2
is not possible, there is the same problem, as Rich wrote. Wonder why...?
Thanks to all.
Cheers...Ralf
I wonder if this has anything to do with the problems I encountered some
years ago when I was writing a popup tool for formatting disks...
On a standard QL, I could happily format DD, HD and ED disks without
problems.
I could also use
FORMAT "flp1_name*H"
and
FORMAT "flp1_name*E"
But, if I then tried:
FORMAT "flp1_name*D"
It always gave FORMAT FAILED !!
