I'm doing a homework assignment and the book isn't very descriptive about formatting a floppy disk making it bootable.
5. Format a floppy disk, making it bootable.
I'm using DOS command in the windows ME command prompt on my old computer since my laptop doesn't take floppy disks in the A: drive..
i tried using......
c:\>format a:
heh... i thought i'd give that a try and act noobish... doing that command rendered the disk useless and the drive didn't recognize it.. so i tried unformat a: and had no luck..
so i tried a new floppy...
a:\>format a: /s
command prompt told me that command wasn't availble in windows me....
so i'm thinking... wtf?! how do i format a disk making it bootable??
does anyone know what command(s) to use to format a disk making it bootable using dos commands in windows me command prompt?
