PHDISK Utility

PHDISK.EXE is the utility program you use to prepare your hard disk for the Suspend to Disk function. It can be used to prepare a dedicated partition prior to storing system configuration data, and system and video memory. Do not remove this partition, labeled “non-DOS” from your hard drive using FDISK. This would disable the TransPort LT’s ability from saving to disk.

The following table lists the PHDISK command line options and additional parameters. The PHDISK options can be called by using only the first letter of each option and parameter. For instance, either PHDISK /REFORMAT or PHDISK /R will invoke the reformat option.

TABLE 21. Command Line Options
	Option	Parameters	Description
	None		Displays the PHDISK opening screen.
	/CREATE	/PARTITION	Formats the save-to-disk partition
	/DELETE	/PARTITION	Deletes the save-to-disk partition
	/INFO	/PARTITION	Displays data about the save-to-disk portion
			or file
	/REFORMAT	/PARTITION	Reforms the save-to-disk portion after an
			error is detected

	Following is an example of the kind of information that is displayed when PHDISK
	is called without a command line option. This example displays Save-To-Disk
	PARTITION INFORMATION headers. This header is displayed only when a
	Save-To-Disk partition exists.
	The USAGE and OPTIONS headers are displayed in several screens displayed
	by PHDISK.
Help Screen	The HELP screen is displayed when PHDISK is called without any command-line
	options.
CREATE Option	The CREATE option measures the amount of on-board memory, and partitions a
	segment of the hard disk drive large enough to store all data present in the
	segment. The CREATE option formats the Save-To-Disk partition or file, marking
	bad spots on the hard disk drive as they are found.
