	LK-MC688B(P) (8x speed, tray loading type)

2. Device Driver name:
        MKEATAPI.ADD (Version 1.12)

3. Driver discription:
        *[/V]           ---> Verbose Mode option
                Displays controller status and drive type during OS/2
                 initialization.

        *[/A:n]         ---> Adapter Number option
                Adapter 0 has default parameters for the primary adapter.
                Adapter 1 has default parameters for the secondary adapter.

        *[/P:nnn]       ---> ATAPI base I/O Port Address(hex) option
                This parameter overrides the default base I/O port address for
                the adapter indecated. The default I/O address for primary is
                (1F0) and for seconday is (170).
                If you will set this parameter, you should set /I: parameter.

        *[/I:xx]        ---> Interrupt number option
                This parameter overrides the default IRQ Number for the adapter
                indecated.The default IRQ level for primary is (14) and for
                secondary is (15).If you will set this parameter, you should
                 set /P: parameter.

        *[/NI]          ---> No Interrupt Mode( Polling Mode ) option
                When you use IDE HDD and ATAPI CD-ROM drive at the same adapter
                (primary or secondary), the MKEATAPI.ADD driver is automatically
                used this mode.

        *[/IOR]         ---> I/O Channel Ready Supported Mode option
                For the adapter with I/O channel ready, the MKEATAPI.ADD driver
                can designate the fastest read mode.

        * : You can omit this option.

Samples:
; scan to primary and secondary adapter.
BASEDEV=MKEATAPI.ADD /V

; scan to secondary adapter with I/O channel ready.
BASEDEV=MKEATAPI.ADD /V /A:1 /IOR

; scan to another adapter(I/O address 1E8  IRQ 11) with I/O channel ready.
BASEDEV=MKEATAPI.ADD /V /P:1E8 /I:11 /IOR



  CAUTION:
     OS/2 Warp has ATAPI CD-ROM filter driver(IBMIDECD.FLT). If problems occur
     using the IBMIDECD filter, you fix lines in your OS/2 CONFIG.SYS file has
     to be edited as follows:

       rem BASEDEV=IBMIDECD.FLT

     At the end of the file, add the following statement

       BASEDEV=MKEATAPI.ADD /V

     and copy to root directory on the OS/2 system drive.
     In this time, if the CR-ROM drive is attached as master to primary or
     secondary, you should fix a line in your OS/2 CONFIG.SYS file has to be
     edited as follows:

       BASEDEV=IBM1S506.ADD /A:x /I

     The /A parameter refers to the adapter number that the CD-ROM is attached
     to.The /I parameter indicates that the IBM1S506 driver should not attempt
     to initialize the adapter indicated.
