3 - Description
---------------
This disk contains drivers for the IOI IOI-9100UWR
and the IOI-9200UWR family of SCSI host adapters.


4 - MS-DOS
----------
The DOSSETUP.EXE program installs the 16bit ASPI drivers,
SCSI CD-ROM driver and the MicrosoftCD extensions. This
program will automatically create or modify the
AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files on your hard drive.
To complete CD-ROM installation, you will need MSCDEX.EXE
pre-installed on the hard drive or on a floppy disk.
MSCDEX.EXE is on MS-DOS 6.2x setup disk number one.  Be sure
that you know the location and the path of MSCDEX.EXE prior
to running DOSSETUP.EXE. The hard drive will need MS-DOS
6.xx installed or it will need to be formatted with the /s
option (i.e. - bootable format) prior to running Initio
DOSSETUP.EXE.  From the x:\ DOS prompt type "DOSSETUP"
and press "enter". NOTE: x = drive letter of floppy drive
used. After DOSSETUP.EXE completes, be sure to reboot system
so changes take effect.


5 - Windows 95 and OSR2
-----------------------
This procedure applies to the installation of Windows
95 from CD-ROM utilizing the Windows 95 Upgrade,
Windows 95 OEM full version or Windows 95 OSR2 (OEM
Service Release 2) CD-ROMs.  The following will prepare
a blank hard drive, load the required drivers and
modify the system files to provide SCSI CD-ROM support.

Note: Installation from Windows 95 Upgrade CD will
require the use of the first setup disk for Windows 3.1x
or Windows for Workgroups 3.1x. For an upgrade vs. a new
installation see next section.

Format boot partition with /s option and then reboot
from hard drive. Run DOSSETUP.EXE and reboot system -
See MS-DOS section. Insert Windows 95 setup CD-ROM
and run setup. Windows 95 setup will run SCANDISK, and
some installations will require HIMEM.SYS to be loaded
on the hard drive and will also require the following
line in CONFIG.SYS "DEVICE=C:\HIMEM.SYS" (This line will
require the path for the file if it is not in the root
directory). If a HIMEM.SYS error is encountered when
SCANDISK is executed; the above fix will need to be done
prior to running Windows 95 setup.  HIMEM.SYS is on the
MS-DOS installation disks. To extract the file, refer to
your MS-DOS documentation.

Install Windows 95 following normal procedure. After Windows
95 is completely installed, reboot system. After system boots,
run "CONTROL PANEL" and then double click "SYSTEM" and select
"DEVICE MANAGER" tab.  In Device Manager select "OTHER DEVICES"
and then select the Initio host adapter.  After selecting the
host adapter, click on "PROPERTIES" and then select "DRIVER"
tab. Click on "Update Driver" button.  The new miniport driver
is located on IOI-9XXXUWR Driver Disk in the WIN95 directory.
After the new driver is loaded, exit Windows 95 and reboot system.

6 - IOI-9200UWR
---------------
The IOI-9200UUWR host adapters is a
multi-function host adapter that utilizes a PCI-to-PCI bridge.  These
host adapters pack multiple PCI SCSI devices on a
separate PCI bus behind a dedicated PCI bridge.  In order for
IOI-9200UWR adapters to work, the system
Motherboard needs to have support to PCI-to-PCI bridge devices.

To find out if your system supports the Initio multi-channel
host adapter family, plug the adapter in the system and turn it
on.  If the Initio BIOS banners fail to display, or if you receive
a "PCI Configuration Error" message, your system may not support
the PCI v.2.1 specification properly.

Each of the multi-channel adapters from Initio are basically
multiple SCSI cards or Fast Ethernet cards combined on a single
PCI card.  When installing the SCSI host adapter driver, it needs
to be installed once for each of the SCSI channels present on the
multi-channel card.  To make this simpler, having the IOI-9200UWR
card in a PCI slot in your system is the same as having two
IOI-9100UWR on secondary dedicated PCI system bus while still using
one PCI slot.


7 - INICD.SYS
-------------

INICD.SYS is a DOS device driver for supporting SCSI CDROM drives.
It is the interface between MSCDEX.EXE (supplied by Microsoft) and
the physical CDROM drive. INICD.SYS must be loaded by your CONFIG.SYS
start up file. INICD.SYS requires that an ASPI Manager be loaded.
Therefore, you must load INICD.SYS after you load the appropriate ASPI
Manager. INICD.SYS can be loaded with either the "DEVICE" or
"DEVICEHIGH" command. Below is a list of command line options and
examples.

/D: /d: This option is used to specify the name of the device driver.
The name specified must also be passed to MSCDEX.EXE on it's command
line (Using the same /D: or /d: option). The name specified must be 8
or less characters in length. Valid characters are the A-Z, a-z, 0-9
and underscore. The name must start with a letter. Examples:

        /D:INICD001
        /d:mscd001
        /d:MYCD01

/T /t   This option is used to specify a Time out value to be used
when sending commands to a CDROM drive. If a CDROM drive does not
respond toa command within the specified time out then the command
will be aborted and an appropriate error message will be displayed.
The time out value is specified in minutes. Valid values are 1-9
and D or d. The D or d values are used to Disable the time out
mechanism. If the time out mechanism is disabled then faulty
hardware can lock up the system. Examples:

        /T4
        /Td
        /TD
        /T1

/X /x   This option is used to eXclude particular CDROM drives.
Excluded CDROM drives are identified by specifying the host adapter,
target id and lun. These values are spereated by a colon. Groups of
CDROM drives (or wild cards) can also be identified. Below are
examples of the different ways CDROM drives can be excluded:

  /X0:1:2  Exclude drive on Host Adapter 0, target ID 1 and lun 2.
  /X0:2   Exclude drive on Host Adapter 0, target ID 2 and ANY lun
  /X0     Exclude ALL drives on Host Adapter 0.



SAMPLE CONFIG.SYS AND AUTOEXEC.BAT FILES

These samples assume that the user has loaded the Initio drivers
in the following directory: c:\ini910u.

Config.sys:

DEVICE=c:\iniaspi\iniaspi
DEVICE=c:\iniaspi\inicd.sys /D:INICD001

Explanation:

The first line loads the ASPI manager and the second line loads the
CDROM driver specifying the device name INICD001.


Autoexec.bat:

Mscdex /D:INICD001


Explanation:

This line will load the Microsoft supplied mscdex.exe file instructing
it to attach to the CDROM device driver INICD001.
