Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

SYS1320
 
Explanation
 
FORMAT reads the filenames in FORMATS.TBL and copies these files to the
target disk. FORMATS.TBL is expected to be in the root directory of the
default drive. If FORMAT is unable to read FORMATS.TBL, it will only
transfer IBMBIO.COM and IBMDOS.COM.
 
Action
 
Copy the files listed in FORMATS.TBL to the target disk to create an OS/2
startup disk.
