   Formatting CP/AM partitions on a CF card

   From: a2@wilserv.com   
      
   I have a CP/AM 3.5 inch boot disk that displays a drive map when booting on a   
   Platinum IIe  The two 3.5 inch drives show as drives A: and B:.  The two 5.25   
   inch drives show as drives C: and D:.  The two partitions on a 64 MB compact   
   flash card show up as    
   drives E: and F:.  The compact flash card is accessed via a SCSI flash card   
   reader/writer connected to an Apple SCSI controller card.  There are CP/AM   
   programs for formatting 5.25 and 3.5 inch disks.  I can find nothing in the   
   CP/AM 5.1 docs about    
   formatting "hard drive" partitions.  As I compose this message it occurs to me   
   that it might be possible to use the 3.5 inch disk formatting program with   
   resulting huge loss in space but that program wants the target disk in drive   
   A:.   Ideas, anyone?
