Parameter Function: to re-create MBR of master disk

Parameter Function: to re-create MBR of master disk
Details: to clear the system booting choice recorded in MBR after uninstalling Windows
NT or Windows 2000
/PRI
Parameter Function: to create primary partition and activate it.
Details: e to create primary partition, and the partition will be set active automatically.
/PRIO
Parameter Function: to create primary partition of FAT16 and activate it.
/Q
Parameter Function: not to restart computer when ending Fdisk
Details: unnecessary to restart computer after changing the partition table.
/STATUS
Parameter Function: to display details of current partition
Details: When there is no logical partition in extend partition, the extend partition will not be
displayed.
/X
Parameter Function: no LBA attribute
Details: there would be no partition with LBA attribute.
It makes handier to use Fdisk with these parameters. However, to hide the parameter will be more
dangerous, which calls for more caution.
Uses Fixmbr to restore MBR
Provided by Microsoft, Fixmbr is a MBR recovery tool, which determines hard disk partition
and re-construct MBR through overall search.
Only when using Windows 2000 recovery console that we can use Fixmbr. Windows 2000
recovery console can boot from Windows install CD. Fixmbr only revises MBR; it does not
write other sectors, which is safe. You can get help information of Fixmbr as following when
using Fixmbr/？.
The parameter “DriveNo” is to write a new MBR (driver). The device name can be obtained
from output of the map command. For example, device name:
/Device/HardDisk0
The following command is to write a new MBR to the appointed device:
fixmar /Device/HardDisk0
Attention: If we do not assign DriverNo, the new MBR will be written in booting device,
namely the driver that loads host system. If the system detects invalid or the non-standard
partition mark, it will prompt that whether continue to execute this command or not. Only if
there are some problems with the driver you visit; otherwise, please do not continue.
By default MBR structure will be checked. If it is abnormal, it will prompt that whether
recover or not. If choose “Y”, it will search partitions. When it has found the partition, it will
also prompt that whether to revise MBR or not. If choose “Y”, recovery will be finished. If
the system is down now, please inactivate the anti-virus function in BIOS first and then
continue.
By default, it will search all existing hard disk, and finish all mentioned operations above. If
the result is not right, you may use “/Z” parameter to clear the result and restart; then it
returns to the original condition.
