Installing Support Software

This section provides an overview of the installation of support software including the Dock I Option Diskette.

Before You Begin

Some SCSI devices are shipped with diskettes called:

Option diskettes

Option/device driver diskettes

Most SCSI hard disk drives do not require these diskettes. Most SCSI devices other than hard disk drives, such as CD-ROMs and optical drives, require an option diskette.

Check for option diskettes in the package containing SCSI devices that you will be connecting to the Dock I SCSI controller. Also check the manuals that came with those devices. If any diskettes were included, keep these for use during the Dock I Option Diskette installation procedures. These diskettes contain files necessary in some installations.

Special Considerations

In this chapter, all references to the IBM PS/2 CD-ROM also refers to IBM PS/2 SCSI CD-ROM II.

Installing the DOS Device Drivers

This section explains how to install the DOS device drivers for the

IBM DOS operating system environment.

SCSI hard disk drives, when attached to the Dock I SCSI controller under IBM DOS, require no device drivers. Follow the instructions with the IBM DOS User’s Guide to prepare drives for use.

Installation Procedure

To install the DOS device drivers, do the following.
