There ARE times where you *might* want to low-level format an IDE drive :-)
I had a Maxtor 213AT that developed "Bad blocks" AFTER using it for several
months (The disk appeared clean when I first got it, as all IDE drives should).
After several months, bad blocks started forming (not a good sign!).  Anyway,
I did several re-partitions and DOS formats, but the bad blocks were always
there.  After talking to the tech rep several times (and lots of part
swapping :-) I determined I had a bad IDE card. I downloaded the Maxtor low-
level format program, swapped the IDE card, did a low-level (then DOS format)
and wala! my drive is fine (and has been since!)  The low-level format 
"eliminated" (or mapped out) the bad blocks, so it looks like a clean drive
again.

Date: 28 Aug 92 06:47:47 GMT

Hello everyone,
When I am connected to my school's Sun using Procomm Plus for DOS, I am
having the following problem: when I type in one or more keys while the screen
scrolls (for ex., after a dir command), the screen just freezes. To get it
back to normal, I have to open and close one of the Procomm windows (ALT P 
and then ESC).
The strange thing is that this occurs only when I am using QEMM386 or EMM386.
When I don't upload them, everything seems ok. Also everything is fine when
I use Procomm Plus in a DOS window under Windows 3.1 even with QEMM386 or
EMM386 resident. I played for hours with my TSRs until I made sure the 
problem is with QEMM386 or EMM386 and Procomm Plus. I also got the BIOS 
cursor patch for Procomm but the problem still occurs. 
I am getting desperate because I really need to use QEMM386 or EMM386, so
any suggestions are welcome. Please send mail and I will post a summary.

Thanks in advance!

Of course, the question was how to direct CONFIG.SYS to a file, not pause
the AUTOEXEC.BAT file.  RTFM, or in this case, RTFQ.

Actually, I would suggest that if you are going to SSTOR you boot drive
you should reserve about 1 MB of space.  Then put your AUTOEXEC.BAT,
CONFIG.SYS, COMMAND.COM and SSTOR driver in that space and delete
the DEVSWAP.COM from the config file.  This will give you a small
C: drive with all of you boot stuff on it and a large SSTOR D: drive.
Now you are always guaranteed to boot up even if the SSTOR
partition is screwed.  You might also want to put other "system
essentials" onto the C: drive to guarantee their availability.

Personally, I really don't see why anyone would want to bother with
the DEVSWAP with the boot drive since you have to reserve some
space anyway and 1MB is not going to cost very much.  Plus you
don't have to worry about  the DEVSWAP driver sucking up memory.

}enough to make sure the pc isn't doing anything odd.

In addition, you might want to pick up BOOT.SYS Version 1.42, an excellent
shareware program that allows boot-up menus to select different
configurations.  This package, by Hans Salvisberg, also includes a little
thing called PAUSE.SYS, which pauses the boot-up process and prints out
a string, then waits for you to press any key.  It operates separately
from BOOT.SYS, so you can use it separately, and can optionally clear
the screen, do a printscreen, output a string without pausing or output.

Here's a help screen:


PAUSE.SYS - 1.01   Copyright (c) 1990 Hans Salvisberg.  All rights reserved.

PAUSE.SYS provides some utility functions, that may be useful for debugging
complex CONFIG.SYS set-ups; it can also send escape sequences to ANSI.SYS,
provided ANSI.SYS (or a replacement) is already loaded.

Syntax:

   DEVICE=d:\path\PAUSE.SYS [switch] [text]

Without any switch, PAUSE.SYS writes the optional text (or a standard text
if omitted) to the screen and waits for a key-press, similar to the PAUSE
command in a batch file. All characters are translated to lower case, except
for those preceeded by a caret (^); to display a caret, write two carets.

The following switches can be specified (each suppresses the wait):
   /C     clear the screen and home the cursor
   /P     do a Print-Screen 
   /O     output only, i.e. don't wait for a key-press
   /Exxx  write an ESC character followed by xxx to standard output; this is
          intended to send commands to ANSI.SYS, e.g. /E[1;37;44m sets the
          screen color to bright white on blue and /E[2^J clears the screen.

PAUSE.SYS is part of the BOOT.SYS package and may not be distributed in any
other context without prior written consent of the author.


Hope this helps...BOOT.SYS V1.42 is available on Simtel under the file
name PD:<MSDOS.SYSUTL>BOOT142.ZIP.

That depends on the speed of the RAM chips.  On a 386 motherboard, the RAM
chips are typically rated at 70 or 80 ns., while the ones in your 286 are
probably rated at 100 ns. (maybe slower).  It also depends on the _type_
of RAM chips.  Your 286 probably uses DIP (centipede style) individual RAM
chips.  Newer motherboards all use SIMMs or SIPs, which combine multiple
chips into "modules" about 1"x3" with an edge style connector (SIMM) or
pins on one edge (SIP).  Check out these two questions.

Regarding Low-level formatting an IDE drive:

One of the reasons I have heard FOR low level formatting is to do things
like re-writing the sectors (putting them back in place to remove potential
problems caused by the heads drifting etc.).  I also heard (a long time
ago) that you should do a LLFormat on a hard drive after you change its
orientation (vertical or horizontal).  These sounded logical.  It has
always bothered me that you can't do this with an IDE.  Are these two things
not necessary for IDE drives, or was the information I was given paranoid?
(IE--neither things are necessary.)

I am looking for something that provides similar functionality to the *nix
process accounting which would provide me with a list of programs that had
been executed, start/stop times, (optionally) keystroke count, etc.

Does such a thing exist?

Thanks for any responses

Chris
