The ASPI driver is on Driver Disk 1. It is important that the SCSI hardware and the
operating system are installed correctly before proceeding further. If you need
help installing the MS-DOS operating system, please refer to the MS-DOS manual
before proceeding.
1. Turn on the host system and boot into MS-DOS.
2. Insert Driver Disk 1 in your floppy drive.
3. At the MS-DOS prompt, change to your active floppy drive: Assuming the
floppy drive is drive A:, type “A: <ENTER>”.
4. Type “DOSSETUP <ENTER>”.
5. A series of screens will guide you through the installation of the ASPI device
drivers. The first screen sets the installation drive and directory that the ASPI
driver will be installed on. Follow the on-screen directions and/or options to
continue the installation.
6. To activate the device driver, reboot the system by selecting the “Reboot Now”
option at the end of the installation process.

The
Ultra2 LVD SCSI Host Adapter
’s ASPI device driver supports command-line
switches to optimize driver operation. Device drivers normally require no additonal
information to work effectively, but for your system or applications you might need
to turn certain features ON or OFF. In the CONFIG.SYS file, use the following
standard command format to modify the device driver’s switches:
DEVICE = C:\INIASPI\ASPIA100.SYS [driver-config option]
The “driver-config options” are:
/D Verbose Mode provides detailed information about the driver on the
system command line when the driver is initialized.
/L The driver scans eight LUNs (logical unit numbers) for each SCSI
target.
/Bb,dd Scan device only on PCI BUS #b, PCI DEVICE #dd
The range for “b” is from 0 to 7 decimal.
The range for “dd” is from 0 to 20 decimal.
/Bb Scan all the devices on PCI BUS #b
The range for “b” is from 0 to 7 decimal.
