- 10/19/94
-
- ================================================================
- Installing support for Multimedia CD-ROM packages (Media Vision
- Pro Audio Spectrum, Creative Labs Sound Blaster)
- ================================================================
-
- Please Read Entire Document for Full Explanation of Procedures
- ---------------------------------------------------------------
-
- These multimedia packages are not supported by the IBM OS/2
- Technical Support Center.
-
- The following procedures are not guaranteed to work, but have
- been successful in some situations.
-
- For further assistance, contact the manufacturer of your
- device.
-
- You must get the OS/2 Device Drivers from the respective
- manufacturers before proceeding with this setup. Windows and
- DOS drivers are not compatible with OS/2. The drivers are
- available from:
-
- Creative Labs -- BBS (405) 742-6660
- Files are located in the OS/2 Drivers section.
-
- SBCD_OS2.EXE - Panasonic CD-ROM drives.
- SB_OS2.EXE - Latest MMPM/2 drivers.
-
- Both files are self-extracting and has a README file with
- installation instructions.
-
- Media Vision -- BBS (510) 770-0527
- Files are located in the OS/2 Drivers section.
-
- OS2.EXE - Latest MMPM/2 drivers.
-
- The file contains the latest TMV1SCSI.ADD and MMPM/2 files that
- are used with the Pro Audio Spectrum cards. The file is
- self-extracting and has a README file with installation
- instructions.
-
- NOTE: File names located on Media Vision and Creative Labs BBS
- are subject to change.
-
- =================================================================
-
- - If you have installed OS/2 on your system and want to add
- CD-ROM support with one of these packages, go to "Installing
- CD-ROM after OS/2 2.1 is Installed".
-
- - If you want to install from the CD-ROM, use both of these
- procedures.
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
- Installing from the CD-ROM
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
-
-
- 1. Use the DISKCOPY command to make a backup copy of OS/2
- installation diskette 1. This makes an exact duplicate of the
- diskette.
-
- NOTE: If you use the COPY command, you must copy every file
- and change the volume label of the destintion diskette to
- DISK 1
-
- 2. Delete the following Adaptec and Future Domain SCSI drivers
- from the backup copy you created:
-
- AHA152X.ADD
- AHA164X.ADD
- FD16-700.ADD
- FD7000EX.ADD
- AHA154X.ADD
- AHA174X.ADD
- FD8XX.ADD
-
- 3. Copy the manufacturer-supplied driver onto your copy of
- diskette 1.
-
- 4. Edit the CONFIG.SYS to include the following statements:
- NOTE: Lowercase represents the lines that currently exist;
- CAPS respresent the lines you should add.
-
- ** For Sound Blaster use - SBCD2.ADD **
- ** For Pro Audio Spectrum use - TMV1SCSI.ADD **
-
- set cdrominst=1 ifs=cdfs.ifs /q BASEDEV=
- TMV1SCSI.ADD *** or substitute your driver filename ***
- or
- BASEDEV=SBCD2.ADD /P:xxx ( xxx is the Base I/O of the sound card)
-
- 5. REM any BASEDEV statements that refer to the filenames you
- just deleted for the Adaptec and Future Domain device drivers.
-
- 6. Install the support for the packages.
- If the installation is successful, continue with the next
- section. If not, you need to create the installation
- diskettes from the CD "disk images" and install from the
- diskettes. This procedure is explained in OS/2 product
- documentation.
-
-
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
- Installing CD-ROM Support After OS/2 2.1 is Installed.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------
-
-
- You need to change the CONFIG.SYS in the root directory of the
- OS/2 partition to access the CD-ROM after OS/2 2.1 is installed.
-
- NOTE: X: denotes the OS/2 partition
-
- 1. Copy the following files to X:\OS2.
-
- OS2CDROM.DMD
- CDFS.IFS.
-
- The files are located on the following diskettes, depending on
- OS/2 package you have:
-
- CD-ROM Installation package .......... Diskette 1
- 3.5 Diskettes, Blue Label ............ Diskette 10
- 3.5 Diskettes, Salmon Label .......... Diskette 12
- 5.25 Diskettes, Blue Label ........... Diskette 16
- 5.25 Diskettes, Salmon Label .......... Diskette 9
-
-
- NOTE: If the files are "packed", unpack them using the
- following commands:
-
- UNPACK A:\CDROMREQ /N:OS2CDROM.DMD
- UNPACK A:\CDROMREQ /N:CDFS.IFS
-
- 2. Copy the manufacturer-supplied device driver to the X:\OS2
- directory.
-
- 3. Edit the CONFIG.SYS. Type:
-
- X:\E CONFIG.SYS
-
- 4. Make the following changes in the file:
- NOTE: Lowercase represents the lines that currently exist;
- CAPS respresent the lines you should add.
-
- basedev=ibm1s506.add
- basedev=os2dasd.dmd
- DEVICE=X:\OS2\OS2CDROM.DMD
- /Q IFS=X:\OS2\CDFS.IFS /Q
- set bookshelf=x:\os2\book . . .
-
- further down . . .
-
- codepage=437,850
- devinfo=kbd,us,x:\os2\keyboard.dcp
- BASEDEV=TMV1SCSI.ADD *** or your device driver filename ***
- devinfo=scr,vga,x:\os2\viotbl.dcp . . .
-
- 5. Save the file and exit the editor.
-
- 6. Perform shutdown and restart the system.
