==CP/M Plus disk/partitions==
You can also create one or more partitions in order to format them to [http://www.seasip.info/Cpm/format31.html CP/M-80 ] and use them exclusively for CP/M. In such case you must make sure that the size of the partition is big enough to accommodate your file system.<br />
HDCPM examines the hard disk's MBR upon start and finds the partition information. Then it finds the LBA of the first sector of each partition and passes it to the CP/M hard disk driver. The CP/M hard disk driver doesn't know anything about partitions. It accesses the partition as if it was a real hard disk.<br />
HDCPM can't be used to partition your hard disk. In order to create partitions you must connect the hard disk to a modern computer and use its partitioning utility.<br />
