HOW TO: Debug a hard drive ( EIDE And SATA )

Postby c0ldfyr3 on Wed Mar 01, 2006 3:37 pm

The following debug script removes DOS and non-DOS partitions on the hard drive. This debug script allows you to convert a drive from an incompatible partition structure to one that will work with FDISK.EXE such as converting Linux partitions to MS-DOS partitions.

Insert the boot disk that contains the Debug command into the floppy disk drive.

Restart the computer.
