(S) Drive setup diskA Drive Setup disk is used to perform a number of very important steps to prepare a disk which has already been tested and shown to be good, to receive a brand new operating system. First all partitions currently on the disk are removed, the drive will be repartitioned as one large partition, the boot sector will be scanned for possible viruses (and cleaned if any are found), a ScanDisk will be done, including a surface scan, to see if there are any bad places on the disk, and the disk will get a label "Harddisk", and then if the disk is being setup for Windows 95A or B a "sys c:" will be done, to reserve space for c:\command.com, c:\msdos.sys, and c:\io.sys, but those files will then be erased so the clone operation which you will then do can copy over the proper files.
