- The SoftBox supports 5, 10, and 20 MB hard disks. The distribution disk
- is configured for 10 MB as explained above. To use other sizes, make
- a new image with CHDMAN. See the top of src/mess/includes/corvushd.h
- for the parameters for the other drives.

- size. When NEWSYS prompts for a source drive, enter "a" (the drive letter
- of the CP/M distribution disk). Use option "d" (Disk drive assignment)
- to reconfigure the Corvus size. After the change has been made, use option
- "s" (Save new system) to write the configuration to the floppy (drive A) and
- option "e" (Execute new system) to restart CP/M with the configuration.
- DIAG.COM and FORMAT.COM can then be used to format the hard disk.
