Installing a B o o t R O M
A socket is provided on the adapter
for installing an optional ROM
device - for example, a boot ROM
device, which enables the computer
to load the operating system software
over the network. Boot ROMs are
available from your dealer
To install an optional ROM, you must
insert the ROM device into the ROM
socket and configure the ROM win-
dow size and base address.
Inserting the R O M
Hold the ROM device without touch-
ing its pins. See Figure 1,2, or 3 in
the Introduction for an illustration of
this procedure. Carefully insert the
device into the socket, making sure
that the notch in the ROM device is
aligned with the notch in the device
socket, and all pins are positioned
over socket openings. Gently move
the device from side to side as you
seat the pins. Verify that all pins are
fully seated in the socket.
Note
Only Boot ROMs V2.0 and later
should be used with these three
adapter boards.
