- ----------------
- | INSTALLATION |
- ----------------
-
- Before starting the installation procedure, you should unzip the
- files included in the SBCD2.ZIP file and copy them to a diskette.
- The diskette you created will be referred to as the "CD-ROM Device
- Driver Diskette" in the following installation instructions.
-
- The following files are included in the SBCD2.ZIP file:
-
- SBCD2.ADD - OS/2 device driver
- *.DDP - Installation profiles
- README.PAN - This README file.
-
-
-
-
- Installation if OS/2 2.1 is already installed on your fixed disk
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
-
- 1. Run the Device Driver installation program
-
- a. Open the OS/2 System folder on the desktop.
- b. Open the System Setup folder.
- c. Open Device Driver Install.
- d. Insert the "CD-ROM Device Driver Diskette"
- e. Select Install
- f. Select the device driver to install from the list
- g. Select OK.
-
- (Note: You do not need to reboot OS/2 before starting step 2 below).
-
- 2. After the Device Driver Installation is complete, you must run
- Selective Install to install the files for the OS/2 CD-ROM Device
- Manager and OS/2 CD-ROM File System.
-
- a. Open the OS/2 System folder on the desktop.
- b. Open the System Setup folder.
- c. Open Selective Install
- d. Select the CD-ROM Device Support check box
- e. Select OK
- f. Scroll to the bottom of the CD-ROM device list table and
- select the choice OTHER
- g. Select OK
- h. Select the OK push button to proceed from the System Configuration
- screen to the OS/2 Setup and Installation window
- i. Select Install
- j. When prompted to do so, insert the numbered installation diskettes
- or installation CD-ROM from the OS/2 2.1 product.
-
-
- 3. If you have changed the base I/O port address on your CD-ROM
- host adapter card you must edit your CONFIG.SYS file and add
- modify the /P:nnn parameter on the BASEDEV=SBCD2.ADD statement in
- your CONFIG.SYS file. Refer to the "Device Driver Parameters"
- section below.
-
-
- 4. Shut down and restart your system
-
-
-
-
- Installation from the CD-ROM version of OS/2 2.1
- ------------------------------------------------
-
- 1. Make a copy of the OS/2 2.1 diskette labeled "Diskette 1"
-
- 2. Copy the file SBCD2.ADD from the "CD-ROM Device Driver
- Diskette" to the root directory on the copy of the OS/2 2.1 Diskette 1.
-
- (Note: If there is not enough room on the copy of OS/2 2.1
- Diskette 1, then delete the file IBM2SCSI.ADD. If you delete
- IBM2SCSI.ADD, you must also edit the CONFIG.SYS file and delete
- the line BASEDEV=IBM2SCSI.ADD)
-
- 3. Edit the CONFIG.SYS file located on the copy of Diskette 1.
- At the end of the file, add the following statement.
-
- BASEDEV=SBCD2.ADD /P:nnn
-
- where "/P:nnn" is the base I/O port address selected on the
- CD-ROM host interface card. The default base I/O port address
- for the Sound Blaster adapter is is 220h, so the statement
- would appear as follows if the card is set to address 220h:
-
-
- BASEDEV=SBCD2.ADD /P:220
-
-
-
- 4. Begin the installation by inserting the Installation Diskette
- into drive A and restarting the system. When prompted to insert
- Diskette 1, insert the copy that you modifed.
-
- 5. When the System Configuration screen is displayed during installation,
- the CD-ROM Device Support field will display "None". Do not modify
- the choice and continue with the installation.
-
- 6. After installation is complete, and you have rebooted your system,
- you will not be able to access your CD-ROM drive. This is due
- to a defect in the OS/2 2.1 install program. To access your
- CD-ROM drive, perform the following steps:
-
- a. Copy the following files from the OS/2 2.1 Diskette 1
- to the drive which OS/2 was installed.
- (Note: the example assume C:, change if different)
-
- COPY A:OS2CDROM.DMD C:\OS2
- COPY A:CDFS.IFS C:\OS2
-
- b. Edit the CONFIG.SYS file on drive which OS/2 was installed
- and add the following statements to the end of the file:
- (Note: the example assume C:, change if different)
-
- DEVICE=C:\OS2\OS2CDROM.DMD /Q
- IFS=C:\OS2\CDFS.IFS /Q
-
- c. Shut down and reboot the system
-
-
- 7. You will need to run Selective Install to copy over some remaining
- system files.
-
- a. Open the OS/2 System folder on the desktop.
- b. Open the System Setup folder.
- c. Open Selective Install
- d. Select the CD-ROM Device Support check box
- e. Select OK
- f. Scroll to the bottom of the CD-ROM device list table and
- select the choice OTHER
- g. Select OK
- h. Select the OK push button to proceed from the System Configuration
- screen to the OS/2 Setup and Installation window
- i. Select Install
- j. When prompted to do so, insert the installation CD-ROM
- from the OS/2 2.1 product.
-
-
-
- Installation from the diskette version of OS/2 2.1
- --------------------------------------------------
-
- 1. Install the OS/2 2.1 product from the diskettes
-
- 2. Go to the section above titled "Installation if OS/2 2.1 is already
- installed on your fixed disk".
-
-

- | SBCD2.ADD Device Driver Parameters |
- --------------------------------------
-
- This section lists the parameters which are supported for the
- SBCD2.ADD device driver. The parameters can be changed by modifying
- the BASEDEV=SBCD2.ADD line in config.sys.
-
-
- For the SBCD2.ADD device driver, the syntax for the line in config.sys
- is as follows:
-
- BASEDEV=SBCD2.ADD [/P:nnn] [T:n] [/V]
-
-
- [/P:nnn]
-
- Specifies the base I/O port address of the interface card.
- The value must be the same number as the port address selected
- by the jumper on the host interface card.
-
-
- [/T:nn]
-
- Sets the adapter type connected to the CD-ROM drive.
-
- Supported value is:
- 2 = Creative Labs CD-ROM interface card (not Sound Blaster)
-
-
-
- Parameter Examples
- ------------------
-
- 1. Panasonic, Creative Labs OmniCD or IBM ISA CD-ROM drive attached
- to standard Panasonic or IBM ISA CD-ROM host adapter:
-
- The standard Panasonic or IBM ISA host adapter supports base I/O
- port addresses of 300h, 310h, 320h or 330h. For example, if the
- adapter is set to a base I/O port address of 300, the line in
- config.sys should be:
-
- BASEDEV=SBCD2.ADD /P:300
-
-
- 2. Panasonic, Creative Labs OmniCD or IBM ISA CD-ROM drive attached
- to Creative Labs Sound Blaster Pro, Sound Blaster 16, or Sound
- Blaster 16 MultiCD.
-
- For example, if the Sound Blaster card is set for a base I/O
- address of 220h, the line in config.sys should be:
-
- BASEDEV=SBCD2.ADD /P:220
-
-
- 3. Creative Labs OmniCD attached to standard Creative Labs
- CD-ROM host adapter (not Sound Blaster) :
-
- The standard Creative Labs host adapter supports base I/O port
- addresses of 250h or 260h. For example, if the adapter is set
- to a base I/O port address of 250, the line in config.sys should be:
-
- BASEDEV=SBCD2.ADD /P:250 /T:2
-
-
- --------------------
- | Trouble shooting |
- --------------------
-
- 1. If you are not able to access the CD-ROM drive:
-
-
- a. Make sure the Base I/O Port Address specified by the /P parameter
- in the config.sys file matches the Base Port Address selected
- on the interface card.
-
-
- b. Make sure all the required files to operate the CD-ROM drive have
- been installed. You should have the appropriate BASEDEV=
- statement in CONFIG.SYS for your CD-ROM device driver. You
- should also have the following statements for the CD-ROM system
- files in your config.sys:
-
-
- DEVICE=C:\OS2\OS2CDROM.DMD /Q
- IFS=C:\OS2\CDFS.IFS /Q
- DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VCDROM.SYS
- BASEDEV=SBCD2.ADD /P:220
-
-
- If you do not have the above statements in your config.sys, you
- must use the OS/2 2.1 Selective Install to install the CD-ROM
- support files.
-
-
-
-
- 2. If the drive letter assigned to the CD-ROM drive under OS/2 is
- different than the drive letter assigned under DOS.
-
- The CD-ROM drive is assigned the next available drive
- letter after drive letters have been assigned for the
- floppy drives and fixed disk drives.
-
- The drive letter is also assigned after any installable block
- device drivers which are located in config.sys before the
- DEVICE=C:\OS2\OS2CDROM.DMD statement (i.e. DEVICE=C:\OS2\VDISK.SYS).
-
- There is currently no mechanism in OS/2 for assigning a specific
- drive letter for the CD-ROM drive. The drive letter assignment
- under DOS can be controlled by using the /L switch on MSCDEX.EXE
- command line.
-
-
