NOTE:

Remember that a floppy disk can never hold more than a single volume. (In some cases, a single volume may extend across multiple floppy disks.) SCSI disks, in con- trast, can hold multiple volumes.

If a floppy disk with an SU700 volume is in the disk drive when the SU700 first comes on, the SU700 will automatically load the volume from the disk.

Procedure

1. If you are going to load from floppy disk, insert the disk containing the volume. (If are loading a volume stored on multiple floppy disks, insert the first disk of the set.) If you are loading from an external SCSI disk, be sure that the SCSI is correctly mounted (p.32), and that the correct disk is inserted (if applicable).

NOTE:

SCSI drives can be used only if the optional SCSI board (ASIB1 board) is installed.

2. Press DISK LOAD to enter this job.

3. Turn the dial as necessary to select LOAD VOLUME, and then press [OK].

The screen displays DRIVE=drive_name.

4. Turn the dial as necessary to select the disk (partition) you wish to load from.

To load from floppy disk, select DRIVE=FDD. (This selection is forced if you have not mounted a SCSI drive.)

To load from a SCSI disk, select DRIVE=SCSI (if the disk is unpartitioned) or DRIVE=SCSI Px (where x is the partition number).

5.After selecting the drive, press [OK].

The screen shows the volume name of most recently selected volume on the se- lected drive: VOLUME=volume name. (If you are loading from floppy disk, the vol- ume name will be FD_VOLUM.)

If you have selected FDD or a removable-disk SCSI device and no disk is present, the screen will display NO DISK. If you have selected a disk that does not contain any volumes, the screen will display VOLUME=(NONE). In either case, press [CAN- CEL] as necessary to return to a previous step or to escape from the job.

6.If you are loading from a SCSI disk or partition, turn the dial as necessary to select the volume. (Remember that floppy disks hold a single volume only; if you are load- ing from floppy disk, therefore, you will not be able to change the selection.)
