Having just recently acquired a Rainbow100+ with 10Meg Hard Drive, I found
myself with a lot of documentation, but without the allover mentioned
Hard-Disk-Utility Floppy disk. I want to reformat the drive and assume that
I need that disk to do so?!?
I want a DOS as well as a CPM partition.
So following questions arise:
a)	Can I do without the utility disk?
b)	If not, has anybody got one?
c)	Can I have DOS as wel as CPM partitions on the Rainbow?

I will be very grateful for any answers regarding the above!
Looking forward to hearing from You!				Thomas
