Command Line Options for aspicd.sys
Example Use
/d:aspicd0 Required in the config.sys command line. Assigns a
name to the CD-ROM drive so that mscdex can
assign the CD-ROM a logical drive letter. The name
must exactly match the CD-ROM drive name in the
mscdex command line in autoexec.bat . Use any eight-
character name.
/id=2+4 Specifies CD-ROM drives controlled by aspicd . By
/ default, aspicd controls all drives. In the first example,
id=3+5+1: which is for a computer with one host adapter, aspicd
4 controls the devices with SCSI IDs 2 and 4. In the
second example, for a computer with two host adapt-
ers, aspicd controls the devices with SCSI IDs 3 and 5
on host adapter 0 and SCSI ID 4 on host adapter 1 (if
you do not specify the host adapter number, aspicd
assumes it is 0).
/L Enables aspicd to recognize all eight possible LUNs
associated with each SCSI ID. If the option is not
used, aspicd can recognize only LUN 0 for each SCSI
ID. Add the /L option to the command line if you have
a CD-ROM drive that can access multiple discs.
If your computer system includes a Pioneer DRM-600
or DRM-604x multiple-disc CD-ROM drive, you do not
need to add the /L option. The aspicd device driver
automatically scans multiple LUNs if it detects one of
these devices on the SCSI bus.
Prevents aspicd from issuing a SCSI Bus Reset mes-
/norst
sage at system start-up. The default is to issue it. The
SCSI Bus Reset message (supported by Toshiba,
Hitachi, and NEC drives) resets drives that are playing
audio CDs when the computer reboots.
/pause Makes your system pause after loading aspicd at
bootup, so you can read the message on the screen.
Press any key to resume booting.
/type:sony Allows aspicd to support audio play mode for
CD-ROM drives that are compatible with a supported
drive type but are not included on the list of supported
drives. If you use the /type: <drive vendor> option,
aspicd assumes that all CD-ROM drives on the SCSI
bus are made by this vendor—you cannot combine
different brands of CD-ROM drives on the bus. The
valid entries for this option are chinon, denon, hitachi,
lms, nec, panasonic, sony, texel, and toshiba.
