- ===================================================================
-
-
- The OS/2 2.1 audio filter driver, CDU8002, will enable the audio
- mode of your SONY SCSI CD-ROM 8002 (also known as Apple CD-150).
-
-
-
- Legal stuff
- -----------
-
- This program is based on undocumented data structures.
- An error in this base device driver or in software which uses it
- can cause your system to lock up and require rebooting, resulting
- in data loss.
- The user is advised always to make adequate Back Ups of all
- valuable files or data. Because he can have no control over how
- this program is used the author accepts no liability for any damage.
-
- The author disclaims all warranties as to this software, whether
- express or implied, including without limitation any implied
- warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose,
- functionality, data integrity or protection, in so far as permitted
- by applicable legislation.
-
- All trademarks are property of their respective owners and appear for
- identification purposes only.
-
-
-
- Shareware
- ---------
-
- Writing this driver has taken a long time and lots of work (because
- neither Apple nor Sony could/wanted to provide technical information).
-
- Therefore this driver is shareware. This means you may try the
- software for 40 days. After the trial period, you must pay a small
- fee if you want to continue using the software.
-
- For detailled information on how to become a registered user, see
- the end of this file.
-
- You are encouraged to copy and pass on the unregistered shareware
- version of this program, if the program is distributed in its original
- form (complete, unmodified).
-
-
-
- Installation
- ------------
-
- It is recommended you have an OS/2 boot disk ready, just in case
- the system locks up during the boot process and you want to remove
- the driver.
-
- Installation is easy (you don't need to boot from your installation
- disks to install the driver):
-
- 0. Ensure data mode works. If not, install a generic SCSI CD-ROM
- using "System Setup".
-
- 1. Edit your CONFIG.SYS file (using the OS/2 "System Editor"):
- E CONFIG.SYS
-
- - If present, remove the line "BASEDEV=SONYCDS1.FLT", since neither
- your CDU-8002 nor CDU8002.FLT are compatible with this driver.
-
- - Add the line
- BASEDEV=CDU8002.FLT
- (no subdirectory name!)
-
- 2. Copy the file CDU8002.FLT to your OS/2 system directory
- COPY CDU8002.FLT x:\OS2\*.* /V
- where x is your OS/2 boot drive.
-
- 3. Shutdown and reboot your computer.
-
- If all goes well and your CD-ROM is powered on, the driver will
- beep twice and display a rather large shareware information screen.
-
- This screen IS THE ONLY LIMITATION of the shareware version.
-
-
- >> If no SONY SCSI CD-ROM is present, the driver won't do anything.
-
- This driver may work with other Apple SCSI-CD ROMs made by Sony.
- Though I don't know any...
-
-
- Technical information on the CDU-8002
- -------------------------------------
-
- The CDU-8002 is NOT compatible with the CDU-541. If you exchange
- the EPROM chips you will soon note that data mode does not work
- properly.
