How do I do it?

I'm planning on replacing the WD controller witha an OMTI 1:1 MFM controller.

The tech at the place of purchase told me that the HD will have to be
reformatted (low-level) to tell it that interleave is now 1:1.

How do I do this?

He mentioned something like "DL /M", but I don't think this is a DOS command.

Help!
