The system:
1 Gig Athlon
KT7 RAID
356M pc133 Micron RAM
2 IBM deskstar 30 gig ATA100 drives (brand new)
The two IBM deskstars are on the RAID controller (IDE 3 & 4). The
partitioning took FOREVER. 12 hours to check the drive integrity twice like
fdisk likes to. Just made it one big primary DOS partition. Now, the
format just isn't moving AT ALL. It's stuck at 0%. Am I doing something
wrong? The blocks on the raid were set to 16k per Paul's faq. I didn't do
the /z:32 with the format command so just a "format c:". It's just plain
jane W98, not SE or ME. Please help.
