When the utility has finished creating the par-
tition, run your operating systems partition
utility (e.g.
MS-DOS
s
fdisk
). It will tell you
that it has found a non-DOS or unknown

just partition and setup the rest of the hard
disk with your operating system. Be careful
not to format the non-DOS or unknown
partition.

or develops too many bad sectors, you should
reformat the partition by typing,
