Special Operating System Notes
NOTE:
The following section pertains only to PC users who use IBM'S OS/2
operating system.
YOUR TASK:
Install OS/2 from your CD-ROM drive. Or, if you
already have installed OS/2, add CD-ROM support.
YOUR OBJECTIVE:
Utilize full capabilities of OS/2 on your computer.
YOUR METHOD:
Check to see if your SCSI interface board is
included on OS/2's list of supported hardware.
Follow IBM's installation instructions.
Installation Procedure
To install OS/2 from your OS/2 CD-ROM disk, you first need to verify that your SCSI
interface board is supported by OS/2. Check your OS/2 manual, and the README file
on the floppy disk that comes with the OS/2 CD-ROM, for information on which SCSI
interface boards OS/2 supports.
If your SCSI interface board is on OS/2's list of supported hardware, you can follow
the installation instructions provided by IBM.
However, if your SCSI interface board is not on OS/2's list of supported hardware,
you must contact the manufacturer of your board and request an OS/2 software device
driver. (See listing of key contact phone/fax/BBS numbers on page 65.)
The OS/2 device driver files that you need from your SCSI interface board's manufac-
turer end with an ''.ADD'' extension. They need to be copied into the CONFIG.SYS
file on the OS/2 installation floppy disk. Your SCSI interface board manufacturer will
provide you with specific instructions.
