- This disc contains
-
- !HForm - A disc formatting utility from Acorn
- !Syquest - A filing system patch for using removable
- drives by Hugo Feinnes
-
-
- !HForm
- ======
-
- !HForm will format or initialise hard discs attatched to the ADFS
- filing system. It runs outside the desktop but does not affect it.
- Pressing escape at any time aborts the program without carrying
- out the format. You will be asked the number of the drive to format
- HFoem will try to identify that drive. Confirm that the drive it
- describes IS the one you want to format. Both ACorn and NCS accept
- no responsibility for the loss of data through the use of HForm.
-
- We reccommend that you do not keep a copy of HForm on your hard
- disc(s). Keep it on a floppy for when you need it.
-
- You should not need to format any modern hard disc drives. When
- asked to Format or Initialise (F/I) always choose to initialise.

-
- !SyQuest
- ========
-
- This program fixes the filing system so that it is not upset when
- the removable disc is spun down and removed.There are two versions
- of this program supplied, one for drive 4 and
- one for drive 5. Use drive 4 if your removable drive is the master and
- use drive 5 if it is the slave. Using Syquest on a fixed hard disc
- will have no adverse affects.
- Load it on to the icon bar and click once so that it indicates that
- a disc is present. Clicking on it again will cause the disc to spin
- down so that it can be safely removed. When re-inserting a disc
- allow the drive to spin up before clicking on the SyQuest icon.
