IBM PC DOS 7.1
PC-DOS 2000 Boot Floppy
Get a PC-DOS 2000 boot floppy and leave just the following files: ATTRIB.EXE COMMAND.COM IBMBIO.COM IBMDOS.COM FDISK.COM FORMAT.COM
Boot, Partition and Format
Boot from the PC-DOS 2000 floppy and partition your drive as needed.
Warning: I found that formatting a FAT32 partition was not supported and had to do that on another system, though the formatted partition did actually show up fine after being created on another system.
