			NVRAM Initialization
			----- --------------

The NVRAM.EXE program is provided to allow the user
to initialize all adapter parameters to default values without having to run
the configuration utilities and manually set each parameter.

The program has the following command format:

        NVRAM [-d|-e|-u] [-c ChannelNumber] [Filename]

where:  -d              Selects dump mode;
        -e              Selects erase mode;
        -u              Selects update mode;
        -c              Dump/update/erase the specified channel, default
                        update/erase all, dump first; and
        Filename        Pathname of file to load NVRAM from or save
                        NVRAM to (optional for update mode).


For example, to reset all parameters for all boards, use the following
command:

        NVRAM -U

This program will set all of the adapter parameters to default values.
You will have to run the "config.com" program to set up any special parameter
values.

The program displays a list of all adapters in the system which have a Symbios
chip as the SCSI processor.  The list will identify which adapters will be
controlled by the ExpressPCI driver.  The channel number to the left of each
adapter is the channel number to use in the command line when only specific
adapters are to be updated.  This program can change the NVRAM settings on
the adapters that are not controlled by ExpressPCI.  This may alter settings
that you have made on those adapters that are different than the defaults.


CUSTOM SETTINGS

The program can be used to save a custom set of parameters to a file
with the '-d' switch.  The adapter can be reset to the custom settings by
updating with the custom file.  The following is an example of the commands
required to perform this custom setup.

1. Adapter reset to defaults.

        NVRAM -U

2. Custom settings made

        CONFIG

3. Save custom settings

        NVRAM -D 'custom filename'

4. Reset custom settings at later time

        NVRAM -U 'custom filename'
