3 TROUBLESHOOTING
3.1 Overriding Drive Capabilities
If the OS/2 system does not work properly after the installation,
it could be that the device drives report wrong capabilities. The user
can use parameters to override the capabilities reported by the
connected device drives.
The user can append parameters with the following format
[/V] [/drive [dma=dmamode|pio=piomode] [!lba] [!ms]]
to "BASEDEV=TRIOS2.ADD"
Where
V indicates to display verbose information.
drive specifies which drive to override on. It can be:
PM primary/master
PS primary/slave
SM secondary/master
SS secondary/slave
dmamode specifies the overriding DMA mode. It can be:
SW2 single word DMA mode 2
MW1 multi-word DMA mode 1
MW2 multi-word DMA mode 2
NO not use DMA operation. The PIO will be used.
piomode specifies the overriding PIO mode. It can be:
0 PIO mode 0
1 PIO mode 1
2 PIO mode 2
3 PIO mode 3
4 PIO mode 4
If the pio_mode is specified, the driver will only use PIO
operation on the corresponding drive.
!lba indicates not to use LBA mode.
!ms indicates not to use multi-sectors commands.
