4.3.2 Hard disk partitioning
Partitioning required for the hard disk:
C: partition 50 MByte, active boot partition
D: partition 450 MByte, SIPLACE Software
The total size of both partitions must not exceed 504 Mbyte.
The DOS program fdisk is used for partitioning.
It can be called via the command line after booting with a DOS system floppy or will start
automatically when the operating system is installed if the hard disk was not set up correctly.

4.3.3 Installing the machine controller operating system
4.3.3.1 Creating the installation floppies
The two floppies required for the operating system of the machine controller can be created on any
PC which is running Windows XP and which has a CD drive, for example, the station computer.
An image in the form of a self-extracting EXE file is stored in the folder
\SIPLACE\Sip_mc\Default\FD_IMAGE.RM3 for both of the installation floppies. The numbers at the
end of the file name (Rmos-1.exe, Rmos-2.exe) correspond to the number of the floppy. The
floppies can be created in any order.
→ Insert a formatted floppy (3.5", 1.44MB) into drive A.

→ Click on the floppy drive in the explorer.
→ Start the relevant executable (this can be started directly from the explorer with a double click).
→ Follow the program instructions:
Insert the floppy. You may be asked whether the floppy can be deleted.
The floppy is written (the bar shows the progress).
→ When the window disappears, the floppy is finished (before removing the floppy, you must wait
until the 'active' light on the disk drive has gone out).
Notes:
- The system looks for a floppy in drive 'A': The floppy must therefore already be in the drive at the
start (this setting cannot be changed).
- You must use a formatted floppy.
(The program does not allow you to format the floppy as you create it.)
- Each time the executable is called it will create a single floppy.
- Before and during creation of each disk, no other tool may be permitted to access this floppy (e.g.
the current Explorer window, the path of a DOS box must not be set to the A: drive).
- When the second floppy is created, the incorrect message "Insert floppy 1" appears. It should
read "Insert floppy 2".
4.3.3.2 Installation procedure
→ Insert the "Rmos-1" floppy in the drive of the MC and switch the station on.
