- The following is an excerpt from the README (after installation of CSD):
-
- o If you are using the file allocation table
- (FAT) file system, update the DISKCACHE=
- statement in your CONFIG.SYS file by
- adding AC:x at the end of the statement.
- "X" stands for the drive letters of your
- FAT partitions. For example, if drives
- C and D are FAT partitions and your
- DISKCACHE statement is the following:
-
- DISKCACHE=64,LW
-
- change it to read:
-
- DISKCACHE=64,LW AC:CD
-
- This change causes OS/2 2.0 to automatically
- run the Check Disk program on the specified
- partitions if the system shuts down improperly
-
-
-
- I tried this, but got an error that said that I had an illegal parameter
- in CONFIG.SYS and then asked me to press any key to bypass the line.
-
- What's up?
-
- I have a C: drive, which is a DOS-FAT drive (if that matters) and a D:
- drive, which is an OS/2-FAT drive.
