When the format begins, you see the cylinder numbers appear as the
necessary information is written to them. After all cylinders are written,
FORMAT verifies that the proper information is actually
on
each
cylinder.
If the verify procedure detects
an
error,
an
asterisk and the cylinder
number are shown
on
the screen. That cylinder
is
locked out, so that
no

command to see the locked out cylinders
on
a diskette.
During parts of the format operations, the system real time clock is
turned off.
