Device driver command line options

The Initio device drivers support command line switches to optimize driver performance. Device drivers normally require no further information to work effectively. However, in certain situations some driver optimization may be advantageous to system perfor- mance. From inside the CONFIG.SYS file use the following format to edit the file.

The standard format for command line switches is: BASEDEV = INI910U.ADD [Driver Config Option]
