Parameter

  • /V - Verbose, show some information while booting.
  • /FLOPPIES:n - Number of floppy devices to be served (by default 1). In order to remove service the key value must be set to 0.
  • /A_USAGE:n - Parameter controls usage of 'A' drive flag for the 1st floppy device. The following values of n can be used:
    • 0 - 'A' drive flag is not used;
    • 1 - 'A' drive flag is used;
    • 2 (default value) - 'A' drive flag is used only if there is no other device driver using this flag.
  • /MAX_FLOPPY - Parameter forces driver to report floppy device geometry with maximal sector count as floppy device physical geometry. With this parameter driver supports LS-120 media formatting but does not support XDF floppy filter features and vice versa.
  • /REMOVABLES:n - Number of removable media devices to be served (by default 1).
  • /FIXED_DISKS:n - Number of fixed disks to be served.
  • /CDS:n - Number of CD-ROM/CD-RW devices to be served (by default 1).
  • /REMOVABLE_AS_FLOPPY - System uses removable disks as partitioned volumes:
  • /FORCE_TO_REMOVABLE - Change external hard disks (for example Archos Jukebox) to removable. This may be necessary if a device anounces itself as a fixed disk but you want to use it as a removable device.
