F-ROM Drive

The F-ROM drive is supported as a disk for which both read and write operations are possible (only for models with the F-ROM drive). Various disk capacities are supported for each model:

Disk capacity: 0 (models without F-ROM), 4M, 8M, 12M, 16M or 24 MB.

To format the F-ROM drive use the System Menu. For information about the formatting method refer to Chapter 3 “System Menu”. In this process the System Menu will call TFORMAT.EXE from drive (C:) to format the F-ROM drive.

For more information about the TFORMAT.EXE operation refer to Appendix A TFORMAT. Since this F-ROM drive supports the INT13h interrupt, it can be used as the built-in fixed drive. Its drive name is D.

PC Card Drive

If either an SRAM card or ATA F-ROM card is inserted in the PC card slot, it can be used as the drive G (Drive F for models without the F-ROM drive). If the ATA F-ROM card is inserted in the card slot, the system can boot up according to the CONFIG.SYS/AUTOEXEC.BAT files included on this card. This start-up method is called "card boot".

For more information about card boot refer to Chapter 4.3 “Card Boot”.
