Adaptec 7800 Family Manager
Using Command Line Options
Once installed, the aic7870.add or aic78u2.add driver does not
usually require any modifications to its configuration. In certain
situations, however, you may wish to add command line options to
the driver to meet your specific needs. The command line options
described in this section can be used in OS/2 v2.1x and OS/2 Warp
3.x and 4.x.
The
aic7870.add or aic78u2.add driver command line resides in the
config.sys file. Command line options are not case sensitive, and
take effect after the computer is rebooted. The command line syntax
is
basedev=aic7870.add [
Universal Parameters ][ Adapter ID ]
[
Unit Parameters : [ SCSI Target ID ]]
or
basedev=aic78u2.add [
Universal Parameters ][ Adapter ID ]
[
Unit Parameters : [ SCSI Target ID ]]
Caution:
Your computer may not boot if you enter the
command line options incorrectly.
Universal Parameters
/et
Embedded targets allowed. Makes the driver assume that all targets
have more than one Logical Unit Number (LUN) defined.
/!et
No embedded targets allowed. Makes the driver assume that all
targets have only one LUN defined. (This is the default setting.)
/v
Verbose mode. Information such as the driver name, version
number, and Adaptec copyright appears if the driver loads
successfully. Also displays information about all targets found in the
computer.
