Back in the old days of the glorious Apple II, in order to "format" a brand new 5.25" inch double-density floppy disk, you had to boot with your DOS 3.3, then replace the disks and type:
] INIT HELLO
The drive will make some noise, flash its light and after a couple of seconds to one minute you will have amazing 143K (kilobytes) available to save your programs!
Well, that's all started!
