This driver diskette contains one EISA configuration directory and five other
driver directories for DOS, Windows NT and NetWare. OS/2 driver is under ROOT
directory.
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. A file, DEVICE.LST, is also included to list the device
tested.
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.

0. How to do with:
A. ">1GB HDD support under assorted operating systems"
The following is the table indicating how to support >1GB HDD under
assorted operating systems with properly settings on "Max DOS disk
Capacity" & "DOS 5 Support Enabled/Disabled" options. It also shows
when the installation of device driver is a MUST under different O.S.

* "OS/2 v2.x/3.0 + >1GB HDD" => It needs special care to achieve this. You are
able to work with >1GB HDD by specifying <1GB capacity for the PRIMARY
partition and leave the rest of the HDD capacity as the EXTENDED
partition. Its procedure may look like this:
1. During installation, specify your own installation partition and not
the PRE-DEFINED partition.
2. You can then create partition for less than 1024MB.
3. Re-boot the system and install DC-3x0/8x0's OS/2 driver.
4. Re-boot and use FDISK to create the rest of HDD space as EXTENDED
partition.
** AHA-1542C has the same constraints for supporting >1GB HDD at this moment.
1. <CF>: It contains EISA configuration file, overlay file, and advanced setup
utility for MCS or other ECUs.
1.1. <MCS>: (advanced utility already included)
a. DC-820B => copy both the !TRM820B.CFG and TRM820B.OVL
into your ECU diskette.
b. DC-320E => copy both the !TRM320E.CFG and TRM320E.OVL
into your ECU diskette.
1.2. <OTHER>: (other ECUs, such as AMI ... etc.)
a. DC-820B => copy both the !TRM820B.CFG and ACF20SU.EXE
into your ECU diskette.
b. DC-320E => copy both the !TRM320E.CFG and ACF20SU.EXE
into your ECU diskette.
Note:
Both the !TRM320E.CFG and !TRM820B.CFG of \CF\OTHER subdirectory work
without TRM320E.OVL and TRM820B.OVL under ALL ECUs. The original
functions of TRM320E.OVL and TRM820B.OVL are supported by ACF20SU.EXE.
2. <CD_APPS>: This directory contains files to support "Audio + Photo"
functions for CD-ROM devices under Windows environment. Please refer to the
README.CD in this directory for installation.
3. <DOS>: It contains ASPI drivers and utilities for both DC-320E and DC-820B.
3.1. ASPIBME.SYS : ASPI driver for DC-320E/820B
3.2. DISKDRV.SYS : ASPI driver for HDD and removable media devices
3.3. TFDISK.EXE : DOS compatible disk partition utility
3.4. TOOLBME.EXE : low-level format, mirroring initialization, disk
image copy/compare, & error logging utilities
3.5. CHKDRIVE.EXE: logical drives status checking utility
3.6. ASPICD.EXE : CD-ROM driver
3.7. 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.
4. <NETWARE.310>: It contains drivers for Netware v3.10.
4.1. NV310BME.DSK: disk driver / ASPI manager.
4.2. BELOW16.DSK: memory allocator for memory below 16 Meg.
4.3. ASPITRAN.DSK: ASPI transport layer driver.
5. <NETWARE.31X>: It contains drivers for Netware v3.11/v3.12/SFT-III.
5.1. NV31XBME.DSK: disk driver / ASPI manager.
5.2. ASPITRAN.DSK: ASPI transport layer driver.
6. <NETWARE.40X>: It contains drivers for Netware v4.00/v4.01/4.02.
6.1. NV40XBME.DDI: installation configuration file.
6.2. NV40XBME.DSK: disk driver / ASPI manager.
6.3. ASPITRAN.DSK: ASPI transport layer driver.
7. OS/2: It contains 4 files under the root directory of this driver
diskette and is for OS/2 versions 2.0/2.1/2.11/WARP 3.0.
7.1. README.OS2 : Procedures for driver Installation and Removal
7.2. TRMSCSI.EXE: Execution file for DDINSTAL
7.3. TRMSCSI.ADD: SCSI Device Driver
7.4. TRMSCSI.DDP: SCSI Device Driver Profile
8. <WINNT.3x>: It contains drivers for Windows NT v3.1/3.5
8.1. README.NT : Procedures for driver Installation and Removal
8.2. OEMSETUP.INF: Setup Information File
8.3. DCSCSI.SYS : SCSI Driver
8.4. DCSCSI : Setup Tag File (Due to the constraint from NT, this
file must be resided under ROOT
directory. This is the reason why
you'd find another exact file under
the ROOT directory.)
9. 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.
(** If you want to check the files in the UNIX driver diskette, you can use
the following commands: cpio -ivtI /device_name.
E.g. Under SCO UNX 3.2.4:
=> cpio -ivtI /dev/rdsk/f0d9d (for 360KB 5"1/4 diskette)
=> cpio -ivtI /dev/rdsk/f03d (for 720KB 3"1/2 diskette)
For other UNIX systems, you may use the same command but have to use the
corresponding device_name for your driver diskette
**)
9.1. 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:

diskette, you must type:
