┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Install DOS Device Driver for UM8672 VL-Bus IDE Controller │
└───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
The INSTALL4.EXE utility can install DOS device driver automatically.
If you want to install DOS device driver manually or change the drive
speed, please follow the steps below.
I. Copy the DOS\UM8672.SYS into the appropriate path.
II. Add following statement to your CONFIG.SYS file to auto load the
driver during bootup.
device=[drive:][\path\]UM8672.SYS[/D<n:m>][/Cyl<n:m>][/Hd<n:m>][/Sec<n:m>]
where
D<n:m> Drive n speed m(0-11) ( 0 the lowest )
Cyl<n:m> Drive n(2-3) cylinder number m
Hd<n:m> Drive n(2-3) head number m
Sec<n:m> Drive n(2-3) sector number m
For instance, the user wants to load UM8672.SYS with drive 0
speed = 6, and the DOS driver resides in the root directory of
the drive C:. Add the following statement to your CONFIG.SYS file.
DEVICE = C:\UM8672.SYS /D0:6
You don't need to specify drive speed and Cylinder, Head, Sector
parameters usually, because the device driver is reconfigured for
the optimal speed setting and detect the Cylinder, Head, Sector
automatically.
III. Reboot your system.

┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Install Windows Device Driver V3.x for VL-Bus IDE Controller │
└───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
The INSTALL4.EXE utility can install Windows device driver automatically.
If you want to install Windows device driver for your system manually
or change the drive speed, please follow the steps below.
I. Copy the Windows\UM8672.386 and Windows\INT13.386 into the
appropriate path.
II. Check if the following lines exist in the [386Enh] section
of your SYSTEM.INI file.
[386Enh]
32BitDiskAccess=ON
device=*int13
device=*wdctrl
If any statement does not exist, please add it to the [386Enh]
section. Please add a preceding semi-colon in front of
"device=*wdctrl" and "device=*int13" command lines. If
"32BitDiskAccess" option is set to be "OFF", Please change
it to be "ON".
III. Add these following statements to the [386Enh] section in your
\WINDOWS\SYSTEM.INI file.
device = [drive:][\path\] UM8672.386
device = [drive:][\path\] INT13.386
DriveSpeed = [/D<n:m>]
where
D<n:m> Drive n speed m(0-11) ( 0 the lowest )
For instance, the user wants to load Windows drivers with drive 1
speed = 11, and the Windows drivers reside in the WINDOWS\
SYSTEM directory of the drive C:. Add the following statements
to your SYSTEM.INI file.
[386Enh]
32BitDiskAccess=ON
;device=*int13
;device=*wdctrl
DriveSpeed = /D1:11
device = c:\windows\system\UM8672.386
device = c:\windows\system\INT13.386
You don't need to specify drive speed parameters usually, because
the device driver is reconfigured for the optimal speed setting.
IV. Reenter your Windows.
(4).
┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Install OS/2 Device Driver V2.x/V3.0 for VL-Bus IDE Controller │
└───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
If you want to install OS/2 device driver for your system,
please follow the steps below.
I. Copy the OS2\UMC1S506.ADD into the OS2 directory of your system
for OS/2 V2.x or copy the OS2\UMC1S506.ADD into the OS2\BOOT sub-
directory of your system for OS/2 V3.0.
II. Check if the following line exists in the CONFIG.SYS file.
BaseDev = IBM1S506.ADD
If the statement exists, please delete it or add "REM" in front
of it.
III. Add this following statement to your CONFIG.SYS file.
BaseDev = UMC1S506.ADD [/A:<0 or 1> /U:<0 or 1> /S:<speed>]
where
speed : drive speed setting from 0 to 11 ( 0 the lowest )
Note : The user MUST NOT specify either drive or path name.
For instance, the user wants to load UMC1S506.ADD with drive
(Unit) 0 speed 6 and drive (Unit) 1 speed 11 which are attached
on Adapter 0. Add the following statement to your CONFIG.SYS
file.
BaseDev = UMC1S506.ADD /A:0 /U:0 /S:6 /U:1 /S:11
You don't need to specify drive speed parameters usually, because
the device driver is reconfigured for the optimal speed setting.
IV. Reboot your system.
(5).
┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Install NetWare Device Driver for VL-Bus IDE Controller │
└───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
If you want to install NetWare device driver for your system,
please follow the steps below.
I. Copy the NetWare\UMCxxx.DSK into the appropriate path.
II. Bring up the NetWare server of your system.
III. Type the following statement after the ":" prompt
:load UMCxxx PORT=<x> INT=<y> [/D<n:m>][/Cyl<n:m>][/Hd<n:m>][/Sec<n:m>]
where

D<n:m> Drive n speed m(0-11) ( 0 the lowest )
Cyl<n:m> Drive n(2-3) cylinder number m
Hd<n:m> Drive n(2-3) head number m
Sec<n:m> Drive n(2-3) sector number m
Note : You MUST NOT load the ISADISK.DSK when you are
installing UMCxxx.DSK Netware driver.
For instance, the user wants to load UMC310.DSK with drive
0 speed 6 and drive 1 speed 11 which are attached on the primary
controller. Add the following statement after the ":" prompt.
:LOAD UMC310 /D0:6 /D1:11 PORT=1F0 INT=E
You don't need to specify drive speed and Cylinder, Head, Sector
parameters usually, because the device driver is reconfigured for
the optimal speed setting and detect the Cylinder, Head, Sector
automatically.
