- SBCD2.ADD can be used in OS/2 system which supports layered
- CD-ROM device management structure. Supported by OS/2 2.1,
- existing OS/2 2.0 users can also access the structure by using
- OS2CDROM.DMD in the OS2CDR package for OS/2 2.0. To get the
- package, type GO IBMOS2 in Compuserve network.
-
-
- INSTALLATION OF SBCD2.ADD, CD-ROM DEVICE DRIVERS
- ------------------------------------------------
-
- 1) If the following line is in your OS/2 CONFIG.SYS file, delete it or
- "REM" it out.
-
- DEVICE=C:\OS2\CDROM.SYS ... (where "..." are parameters)
-
- 2) If the OS2CDROM.DMD file is not already in the C:\OS2 directory,
- copy that file from DISK 1 of your OS/2 Ver. 2.1 installation
- diskettes to the C:\OS2 directory.
-
- 3) Copy the SBCD2.ADD file to C:\OS2
-
- 4) Put the following lines in your OS/2 CONFIG.SYS file in the given
- order near the bottom of the OS/2 CONFIG.SYS file. (Putting these
- lines near the top could cause problems.) Make sure that none of
- these lines are already in your OS/2 CONFIG.SYS file. If they are,
- delete them and put them with the lines shown below.
-
- BASEDEV=SBCD2.ADD /P:220
- BASEDEV=OS2CRDOM.DMD
- IFS=C:\OS2\CDFS.IFS /Q
- DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VCDROM.SYS (This file is required for DOS Sessions)
- LASTDRIVE=H
-
- NOTE: A) The last line (LASTDRVIE=H) will problably be different for
- your system. For example, if the current last drive of your
- system is "D: ", your CD-Rom drive will be "E:" and the last
- line should read: LASTDRIVE=E
- This line may be optional. If you have problems, try eliminating
- this line and see what happens.
-
- B) The first line contains the I/O address of the Sound Blaster
- card as a parameter (/P:220). If your I/O address is different
- (not 220), change the number on the first line to reflect your
- setting. Check "DESCRIPTION OF SBCD2.ADD SWITCHES" at the end
- of this document for info. on how to set other switches.
-
- 5) Reboot your system. The SBCD2.ADD driver should now work.
-
-
-
- DRIVER INSTALLATION PROCEDURE IF YOU HAVE NOT INSTALLED OS/2 2.1
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
-
- 1. Copy the SBCD2.ADD CD-ROM driver to the OS/2 2.1 DISK 1 of your
- installation diskettes.
-
- 2) Add the following line to the CONFIG.SYS file contained on
- the OS/2 2.1 DISK 1. (Put it on the last line of
- the CONFIG.SYS file.)
-
- BASEDEV=SBCD2.ADD /P:220
-
- 3) Install OS/2 2.1 on your system. When selecting installation
- options, be sure and install the CD ROM option! When you are
- asked to enter the type of CD-ROM go to the bottom of the list
- and select "OTHER" (OS/2 2.1 does not include the SBCD2.ADD driver
- but there are OTHER CD-ROM support files provided from IBM that
- are required.)
-
- 4) Copy the SBCD2.ADD file to the C:\OS2 directory.
-
- 5) If the OS2CDROM.DMD file is not already in the C:\OS2 directory,
- copy that file from disk 1 of your OS/2 Ver. 2.1 installation
- diskette to the C:\OS2 directory.
-
- 6) If the CDFS.IFS file is not already in the C:\OS2 directory,
- copy that file from disk 1 of your OS/2 Ver. 2.1 installation
- diskette to the C:\OS2 directory.
-
- 7) Make certain the following lines are in the OS/2 CONFIG.SYS
- file on your hard disk in the given order.
-
- BASEDEV=SBCD2.ADD /P:220
- IFS=C:\CDFS.IFS /Q
- BASEDEV=OS2CDROM.DMD
- DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VCDROM.SYS
- LASTDRIVE=H
-
- NOTE: A) The last line (LASTDRIVE=H) will probably be different
- for your system. For example, if the current last drive
- of your system is "D:", your CD-ROM drive will be "E:"
- and the last line should read: LASTDRIVE=E
- This line may be optional. If you have problems, try
- eliminating this line and see what happens.
-
- B) The first line contains the I/O address of the Sound
- Blaster card as a parameter (/P:220). If your
- I/O address is different (not 220), change the
- number on the first line to reflect your setting.
- Check "DESCRIPTION OF SBCD2.ADD SWITCHES" at the
- end of this document for info. on how to set other
- switches.
-
- 8) Reboot your system. The SBCD2.ADD driver should now work.

- DESCRIPTION OF SBCD2.ADD SWITCHES
- ---------------------------------
-
- /P:xxx
- ------
- This switch specifies the port address(in hex) of Sound Blaster card
- used. Options for xxx are 220 and 240. Default setting for xxx is
- 220.
-
- Example:
-
- BASEDEV=SBCD2.ADD /P:220
-
-
- /M:xxx
- ------
- This switch specifies the port address(in hex) of MKE CD-ROM interface
- card used. Options for xxx are 300, 310, 320 and 330. Default
- setting for xxx is 300.
-
- Example:
-
- BASEDEV=SBCD2.ADD /M:300
-
-
- NOTE : /P and /M are mutually exclusive. If both are specified, the
- latter one will be effective. If none is specified, default
- is Sound Blaster.
-
-
- /D:xxx
- ------
- This switch specifies the drives to be run at double transfer speed
- (300KB/s). The option /D:xxx specifies all daisy chained drives to
- run at double speed. You can specify individual drive using
- /D:0, /D:1, /D:2, or /D:3 where 0, 1, 2, and 3 are the ID numbers of
- drives you want to run at double speed. If you have only one drive,
- use the following format:
-
- BASEDEV=SBCD2.ADD /D:1 (1 is the jumper setting on the drive)
-
- If you have 2 or more drives, use this format:
-
- BASEDEV=SBCD2.ADD /D:1,3 (1 and 3 are jumper settings on the drives)
-
-
- /N:xxx
-
- This switch specifies the drives to be run at normal transfer speed
- (150KB/s). The option /N:xxx specifies all daisy chained drives to
- run at normal speed. You can specify individual drive using
- /N:0, /N:1, /N:2, or /N:3 where 0, 1, 2, and 3 are the ID numbers of
- drives that you want to run at normal speed. If you have only one drive,
- use the following format:
-
- BASEDEV=SBCD2.ADD /N:1 (1 is the jumper setting on the drive)
-
- If you have 2 or more drives, use this format:
-
- BASEDEV=SBCD2.ADD /N:0,2 (0 and 2 are jumper settings on the drives)
-
- NOTE : The default is double transfer speed wherever it is possible.
- If the same drive has been set more than once, the latest
- setting will take effect.
