The system must contain a supported processer and PIIX device as specified by the NOTE at the beginning of this document. 2. Ensure that a mouse is connected to the system. 3. Do not use any other add-in IDE (PCI or ISA) card in the system during installation. Operating System: 1. IBM OS/2 2.x or Warp* 3.x must be installed on the system prior to installing the driver. 2. Perform installation off of the on-board primary PIIX IDE interface. BIOS: The BIOS must properly initialize the PIIX IDE interface for bus master operation. **************************************************************************** * INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE * **************************************************************************** The following procedures for the installation of the PIIX Bus Master IDE Drivers for OS/2 (PIIXIDE.ADD and PIIXIDE.FLT) are specific only to the version of the drivers currently contained within this package. The following procedures assume that the OS/2 operating system was installed properly on the target system, and that the standard PIIX IDE driver, IBM1S506.ADD, and ATAPI CD-ROM filter driver, IBMIDECD.FLT, were used. If IBM1S506.ADD or IBMIDECD.FLT were not used, the drivers which replaced them should be un-installed before installing PIIXIDE.ADD and PIIXIDE.FLT. Furthermore, if IBM1S506.ADD and IBMIDECD.FLT were not originally installed on the target system, they should be installed first, and the system re-tested with them, before installing PIIXIDE.ADD and PIIXIDE.FLT. By default, bus mastering is disabled on ATAPI CD-ROM devices. For DMA capable CD-ROM devices, it should be enabled using command line parameters on the PIIXIDE.ADD line in CONFIG.SYS. For example, if the CD-ROM device is connected as slave on the secondary IDE cable, bus mastering can be enabled by installing PIIXIDE.ADD as follows: BASEDEV=PIIXIDE.ADD /A:1 /U:1 /BM Note: For special conditions that may apply to your system, please review the RELEASE NOTES section, before installing the PIIX Bus Master IDE Drivers for OS/2. Automatic Install Procedure: **************************** 1. Run the install utility (INSTALL.EXE). INSTALL.EXE copies PIIXIDE.ADD and PIIXIDE.FLT from the source directory to the target directory, and changes the CONFIG.SYS file to install them. Command line format: install [options] Command line options: /s: Specifies the path to the directory containing PIIXIDE.ADD. The default source is the directory containing INSTALL.EXE. /t: Specifies the path to the directory where INSTALL.EXE will copy PIIXIDE.ADD. The default target is the \OS2 directory on the boot drive. /tu: Specifies the path to the directory containing the CONFIG.SYS file. The default directory is the root of the boot drive. /l: Specifies an optional log file. If this option is used, the output will be redirected to the specified file, and INSTALL.EXE will run unattended. /p:
