=====================================================================
Installing the NEW Creative Labs CD-ROM Driver in OS/2 2.1
SBCD2.ADD Version 1.23
=====================================================================
You should replace any earlier version with this new driver.
INSTALLING SBCD2.ADD to an existing OS/2 system
1. Check that you have the following lines in your CONFIG.SYS. If
these lines are missing, add them to your CONFIG.SYS and make
sure that they are located in your OS/2 directory. If these
files are not in your OS/2 directory then you must follow the
Selective Install procedure detailed in your OS/2 manual, you
must check the CD-ROM Drive box and select OTHER for the type of
CD-ROM Drive attached to your system.
BASEDEV=SBCD2.ADD /P:XXX (Where 'XXX' is the Address of the SB card)
IFS=C:\OS2\CDFS.IFS (The "/T:2" should be added to the
DEVICE=C:\OS2\OS2CDROM.DMD SBCD2.ADD line if the customer
DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VCDROM.SYS is using the 1810 interface!)
*NOTE: A. These lines should be kept together in the CONFIG.SYS and
they MUST be in the order shown above!
B. Make sure that you do NOT have any duplicates of these lines
in your CONFIG.SYS or you will get an error every time OS/2
starts.
2. Copy the SBCD2.ADD file to the C:\OS2 directory. In some cases
this file may need to be located in the root directory of the C:
drive. If you have SBCD2.ADD in the OS/2 directory and OS/2 still
will not recognize your CD-ROM Drive then copy the file to the
root directory. This should solve the problem.
INSTALLING OS/2 2.1 (Final release) From CD-ROM using SBCD2.ADD
1. Make backup copies of the two disks that come with the OS/2 2.1
CD-ROM. Store the original disks in a safe place in case they
are needed in the future.
2. Copy the SBCD2.ADD file to the new disk labeled "Diskette 1".
3. Next, add the following line to the file CONFIG.SYS found on the
new disk labeled "Diskette 1". This line should come right before
the line "IFS=C:\OS2\CDFS.IFS /Q".
BASEDEV=SBCD2.ADD /P:xxx (Where 'xxx' is the I/O
Address of the SB card)
4. Reboot the system with the new disk labeled "Installation
Diskette" and follow the installation process accordingly.
5. After the installation is completed and your system has rebooted,
you must copy the files CDFS.IFS and OS2CDROM.DMD from the OS/2
installation disk labeled "Diskette 1" into the OS2 directory on
your hard drive, then add the following two lines to your
CONFIG.SYS file that is located on the C: drive. So that you will
be able to access the CD-ROM drive after the installation process
has completed.
IFS=C:\OS2\CDFS.IFS /Q
DEVICE=C:\OS2\OS2CDROM.DMD
6. Remember to reboot the system.
