Well, in the workspace manager you activate the Disk menu (I think) and
pick Initialize or Format disk. Sorry, but I don't remember off the top of
my head but it is in the menu.

After the format Panel appears, look for the selection that says NeXT. When
you click on this you will get the option selections for Mac and Dos format
disks. That is it.
