Question : If i delete partition and reformatt do i also delete DOS?

If you delete the Active Primary Partition, you will delete whatever Operating System resides on that partition. If you then create a fresh partition, when you re-format you will have an empty drive. If you want to be able to boot to DOS from that drive, you will have to use the FORMAT /S command from the boot floppy when you format, to transfer DOS boot files to the hard drive, or have SYS.COM also on the floppy disk and after the format, type SYS C:
