 I have been trying to format an rll drive (32 mb miniscribe) up to
32 mb. I am using disk manager by Ontrack.

It initializes the disk to 26 sectors but will not format and install
the dos.

I have also tried to partition the disk with fdisk and then formatting
with dos format. This results in the disk being formatted up to 20 mb
with an installed system. I suspect that msdos may not know what to do
with the 26 sectors produced by initializing an rll drive. Dos seems to
format 17 sectors only.

I don't know why Disk manager hiccups when I try to install the Dos
system.

Can anyone help me or explain what has to be done to format up an rll
type drive.

By the way, my hard disk controller does not have the debug method of
initialization, and it is an AT controller.
