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 <DOS> 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. <DOS>: It contains ASPI drivers and utilities for DC-880(B)/380. 1.1. ASPIBMV.SYS : ASPI driver for DC-880(B)/380 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 : There are 3 ACF.EXE files => ACF380.EXE for DC-380, ACF800.EXE for DC-880, & ACF880B.EXE for DC-880B 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 <F2> or <F6> during CMOS setup session. Therefore, it allows you to modify the adapter/device options w/o opening the cabinet. 2. <NETWARE.310>: 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. <NETWARE.31X>: 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. <NETWARE.40X>: 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 <Enter> to choose to install from floppy driver 0 3. Press <Enter> to install the driver 4. Press <Enter> 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 <Return> 2. Type the corresponding number of: "EISASC Lock/Unlock Driver Package" 3. Press <Enter> 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 <Enter> 2. Enter SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION and choose softwaremgmt option by typing: 5 <Enter> 3. Enter softwaremgmt and choose installpkg option by typing: 1 <Enter> 4. Enter density of the diskettes you are installing from and choose 360 KB (5"1/4 double density) option by typing: 2 <Enter> 5. Press <Enter> to install the driver 6. Press <Enter> to choose the ISC UNIX is being installed 7. Press <Enter> to reboot the system To ensure the driver is properly installed, type the following command to check the driver listing: displaypkg <Return> [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 <Enter> to remove the driver 4. Press <Enter> 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
