This driver diskette contains four driver directories for DOS and NetWare. Refer to your manual for more details about each specific item. A special notice regarding the compatible CD-ROMs for ASPICD.EXE is also contained in this file. A DOS driver installation file (INSTALL.EXE), which resides in the directory, can help you install the drivers by auto-updating the AUTOEXEC.BAT & CONFIG.SYS files. The other driver diskette that contains LOCK/UNLOCK driver packages for SCO and ISC is UNIX-formatted and cannot be read from DOS. Therefore, their installations are described in this README.TXT file. These two UNIX drivers are useful to removable media devices. 1. : It contains ASPI drivers and utilities for DC-880. 1.1. ASPIBMV.SYS : ASPI driver for DC-880 1.2. DISKDRV.SYS : ASPI driver for HDD and removable media devices 1.3. TFDISK.EXE : DOS compatible disk partition utility 1.4. TOOLBMV.EXE : low-level format, mirroring initialization, disk image copy/compare, & error logging utilities 1.5. CHKDRIVE.EXE: logical drives status checking utility 1.6. ASPICD.EXE : CD-ROM driver 1.7. INSTALL.EXE : This is a DOS driver installtion utility that helps you install the device drivers for HDD, removable media, CD-ROM, and tape by auto-updating the CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files. 1.8. ACF.EXE : This execution file has exactly the same function as the VCU (VESA Configuration Utility) does. The difference is: Don't have to re-boot the system and enter the VCU by pressing the or during CMOS setup session. Therefore, it allows you to modify the adapter/device options w/o opening the cabinet. 2. : It contains drivers for Netware v3.10. 2.1. NV310BMV.DSK: disk driver / ASPI manager. 2.2. BELOW16.DSK: memory allocator for memory below 16 Meg. 2.3. ASPITRAN.DSK: ASPI transport layer driver. 3. : It contains drivers for Netware v3.11/v3.12/SFT-III. 3.1. NV31XBMV.DSK: disk driver / ASPI manager. 3.2. ASPITRAN.DSK: ASPI transport layer driver. 4. : It contains drivers for Netware v4.00/v4.01. 4.1. NV40XBMV.DDI: installation configuration file. 4.2. NV40XBMV.DSK: disk driver / ASPI manager. 4.3. ASPITRAN.DSK: ASPI transport layer driver. 5. UNIX LOCK/UNLOCK driver package installation: These two drivers for SCO/ISC UNIX are in the other diskette. Since the UNIX driver diskette is UNIX-formatted, it is unrecognizable under DOS. 5.1. SCO UNIX V.3.2.2 (** similar function is default supported by SCO UNIX V.3.2.4 **) [Driver installation] To install the driver, insert the working copy of the UNIX driver diskette in drive A: 0. To prepare the installation for 360KB (5"1/4) driver diskette, you must type: cd /dev mv dsk/f0 dsk/f0.org ; mknod dsk/f0 b 2 132 mv rdsk/f0 rdsk/f0.org ; mknod rdsk/f0 c 2 132 NOTE: if the diskette is of 720KB (3"1/2), replace the above commands with: cd /dev mv dsk/f0 dsk/f0.org ; mknod dsk/f0 b 2 164 mv rdsk/f0 rdsk/f0.org ; mknod rdsk/f0 c 2 164 1. At the prompt, type: installpkg 2. Press to choose to install from floppy driver 0 3. Press to install the driver 4. Press to choose the SCO UNIX is being installed 5. To have the newly built UNIX take effect, reboot the system 6. Restore the original filename modified in step <0> accordingly: cd /dev mv dsk/f0.org dsk/f0 mv rdsk/f0.org rdsk/f0 [Driver removal] To remove the driver, you can follow the procedures: 1. At the prompt, type removepkg 2. Type the corresponding number of: "EISASC Lock/Unlock Driver Package" 3. Press to remove the driver 4. To have the newly built UNIX take effect, reboot the system [Removable media support] This driver supports removable media like Magneto Optical drive. Upon successful installation, two utility files rmount and rumount will be found under /etc to replace original "mount" and "umount" commands. These two files lock/unlock medium before/after file system is mounted/un-mounted, preventing accidental replacement of medium. 5.2. ISC UNIX V 3.2 [Driver Installation] To install the driver, insert the working copy of the UNIX driver diskette in drive A: 1. At the prompt, type sysadm 2. Enter SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION and choose softwaremgmt option by typing: 5 3. Enter softwaremgmt and choose installpkg option by typing: 1 4. Enter density of the diskettes you are installing from and choose 360 KB (5"1/4 double density) option by typing: 2 5. Press to install the driver 6. Press to choose the ISC UNIX is being installed 7. Press to reboot the system To ensure the driver is properly installed, type the following command to check the driver listing: displaypkg [Driver Removal] To remove the driver, you can follow the procedures: 1. At the prompt, type removepkg 2. Type the corresponding number of: "EISASC Lock/Unlock Driver Package" 3. Press to remove the driver 4. Press to reboot [Removable Media Support] This driver supports removable media like Magneto Optical drive. Upon successful installation, two utility files rmount and rumount will be found under /etc to replace original "mount" and "umount" commands. These two files lock/unlock medium before/after file system is mounted/un-mounted, preventing accidental replacement of medium. 6. ASPICD.EXE option setting for compatible CD-ROMs If your CD-ROM is compatible with other manufacturer and not recognized, you have to add one more option, i.e., /t:XXX. XXX is short for compatible manufacturer name. For example, if your DEC CD-ROM CDU-541 is compatible with SONY CDU-541 and not recognized by the previous command, you can try add one more option as follows: device=c:\aspi\aspicd.exe /d:cdrom0 /t:SON
