On the original Win98 boot floppy, formatting works normally, but after I put it onto the DOS boot disk I made, it shows what is in the picture below and can’t be used anymore! A question for everyone: what do I need to change to make it work properly??

Also attaching a picture of the IMG:

It means the DOS version is wrong. Which version of DOS are you using? It isn’t some very old DOS version (such as 6.x), is it? Try the standard MS-DOS 7.1 boot disk below; the FORMAT command in it can definitely be used:

Thanks for the reminder from Wengier. After trying again many times, I found that msdos71b seems not to support long file names. For example, when calling lhymessage.bat, it gives the error prompt: bad command or file name..............
Also, I found that my inability to use format normally was caused after using NTFSDOS. It’s already solved, thanks Wengier!! Hehe~~~
