The Base Device Drivers are needed by OS/2 to install elementary services, like your hard disk, keyboard, etc. The Base Device Drivers are the first entries from the config.sys file that are loaded during the boot. They are not loaded in the same order as they appear in the config.sys file. They are loaded dependant on their file extension.

*[[OS2PCARD.DMD]]
*[[OS2SCSI.DMD]]
*[[SCSITAPE.DMD]]


* /I
==MISC==
Ignore the specified adapter. This allows another driver to share the adapters that the ADD would normally use.
*[[ATOMBIOS.SYS]] - ATOM BIOS widescreen video modes support.
* /DM
*[[INTLBIOS.SYS]] - Widescreen modes for Intel GMA video adapters
Enable DASD manager support (DEFAULT). This parameter allows OS2DASD.DMD to control the specified target(s) if they are identified as DASD (hard disk) devices.
*[[CPQFCAL.ADD]] - Compaq StorageWorks Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter.  
* /!DM
Disable DASD manager support. This parameter prevents OS2DASD.DMD from controlling the specified target(s).
* /SM
Enable SCSI manager support (DEFAULT). This parameter allows OS2SCSI.DMD to control the specified target(s) if they are identified as NON-DASD SCSI devices. All SCSI hard drives will be controlled by OS2DASD.DMD.
* /!SM
Disable SCSI manager support. This parameter prevents OS2SCSI.DMD from controlling the specified target(s).
* /TAG:n  ... n=1-16.
Specifies the maximum number of tagged commands for all target devices on the host adapter (1-16). A value of 1 disables tagged queuing. The maximum number allowed is 16. (The default is 8.)
* /UR
Enables reporting of under runs (DEFAULT).
* /!UR
Disables reporting of under runs.


<b>TIP:</b> If Warp doesn't recognise the AIC7870 Driver add the parameter /A:n n=Number of Controller and /TAG:n n=number of PCI-Slot to AIC7870.ADD. It seems that the version 2.2 of the Adaptec 2940 driver does not work correctly with RSJ, but version 2.11 works fine.

*<b>[Adapter ID]</b> - /A:n, where n is the number (zero relative) of the adapter installed in the system. The adapter ID is determined when the driver is loaded based on the order that adapters are found in the system. (Refer to the Configuration Examples in the "General Unit Parameters" section below for information on how to use this option.)
*<b>[Unit Parameter]</b> - Modifies the behavior of the selected host adapter.
*<b>[SCSI Target ID]</b> - The targets to which the Unit Parameter will be applied. This parameter may be a single ID (d) or list of IDs (d,d,d).
 
<b>Universal Parameters:</b>
* /ET
Allow embedded targets. This parameter indicates that the ADD should assume that all targets have more than one logical unit (LUN) defined.
* /!ET
Do not allow embedded targets (DEFAULT). This parameter indicates that the ADD should assume that all targets have only one logical unit (LUN) defined.
* /V
Load driver verbosely. This parameter will display the driver name as well as the version number and Adaptec copyright if the driver loads successfully. Information on all targets found in the system will also be displayed.
 
<b>Unit Parameters:</b>
<b>General:</b>
* /I
Ignore the specified adapter. This allows another driver to share the adapters that the ADD would normally use.
* /DM
Enable DASD manager support (DEFAULT). This parameter allows OS2DASD.DMD to control the specified target(s) if they are identified as DASD (hard disk) devices.
* /!DM
Disable DASD manager support. This parameter prevents OS2DASD.DMD from controlling the specified target(s).
* /SM
Enable SCSI manager support (DEFAULT). This parameter allows OS2SCSI.DMD to control the specified target(s) if they are identified as NON-DASD SCSI devices. All SCSI hard drives will be controlled by OS2DASD.DMD.
* /!SM
Disable SCSI manager support. This parameter prevents OS2SCSI.DMD from controlling the specified target(s).
* /TAG
Specifies the maximum number of tagged commands for all target devices on the host adapter (1-16). A value of 1 disables tagged queuing. The maximum number allowed is 16. (The default is 8.)
* /UR
Enables reporting of under runs (DEFAULT).
* /!UR
Disables reporting of under runs.
 
<b>NOTE=</b>
Intel Errata #8511 lists known data integrity issues with the processor cache on the Saturn-1 chipset (82424TX). For this reason, Adaptec recommends that processor cache be disabled via the CMOS setup to avoid data corruption. For more information, see Intel Errata #8511. You may get this from Intel's FaxBack system at  or .
 
There are installation problems when installing on the maximum hard disk drive partition size supported by OS/2 v3.0. On OS/2 v3.0 it is a known problem. Refer to IBM for further info. IBM's APARs PJ15988 and PJ 6151 deal with this issue.
 
There are known installation problems installing OS/2 Warp v4.0 on a Micron (LSI chipset) 64 bit PCI system.
 
There are known installation problems installing OS/2 Warp with 8MB of RAM unless all the third-party basedev statements are removed from config.sys.
 
There are known installation problems installing OS/2 using two SCSI host adapters on a "Marl" motherboard. Whenever you have a LVD HDD on one Ultra160 host adapter and a HDD, CD-ROM, and removable Syjet on another UltraSCSI host adapter, Syjet conflicts with the CD-ROM and the system is unable to access the CD-ROM.
 
This version of the Ultra160 Family Manager Set driver supports the AIC-7892/99 Family of Host Adapters. Adapter numbers are first assigned to boards with their BIOS enabled. The numbers are assigned from lowest BIOS address to highest address. Any remaining boards are assigned numbers by scanning slots. Each slot is a combination of a bus number and a device number pair starting from lowest to highest numbers, and the adapters are assigned a number in the order they are found.
 
Example:
  Bus 0, device 0 assigned as adapter 0; Bus 1, device 1 assigned as adapter 1, etc.
 
There are no switches for controlling OS2ASPI.DMD directly. IBM did not define them in their specification and Adaptec cannot be sure that other host adapters will have the same switches. OS2SCSI.DMD will only allocate devices when a device driver requests it, but this will prevent OS2ASPI from accessing it. There is nothing in the ASPI specification regarding device allocation so OS2ASPI must rely on other managers to fairly share targets. This should only be a problem if you have two drivers that use different managers and you want them both to access the same target at the same time.
 
Do NOT disable DASD manager access to target 0 if you are booting from your SCSI host adapter. This will prevent the system from booting!
 
Fault Tolerance is supported in the driver. However, ABORT and SCSI BUS RESET will only work for targets that are properly behaved.
 
IBM does not support installing the operating system onto magneto optical devices. Additionally, OPTICAL.SYS (OS/2 3.0) or OPTICAL.DMD (OS/2 4.0) allows magneto optical devices to be supported as though they were large floppy devices.
 
LOCKDRV.FLT allows removable media such as MO's to be supported as though they were fixed hard drives. It is not possible to install OS/2 3.0 on drives with capacity greater than 8 GB, nor in a partition greater than 4 GB.
 
OS/2 will allocate the SCSI devices as the order in CONFIG.SYS if two drivers (such as the AIC7870.ADD and AICU160.ADD) are loaded. OS/2 will assign drive letters for SCSI devices first then IDE devices.

=BASEDEV=ATAPIMO.FLT=
MO device filter from Fujitsu
 
  BASEDEV=ATAPIMO.FLT
 
<b>NOTE</b> This driver is fully substituted by the DANIATPI.FLT
 
<b>Parameters</b>
 
* /Rn or /R:n
(Number of reserved drives) 'n' is a number between 1 and 10. Default is 1. A series of logical drive names can be reserved for each MO drive for future partitioning. If the number of valid partitions exceeds the number specified /R option, and if /S option is not specified, up to 16 partitions are allowed.
* /S
(Reserved drive priority) No more logical drives than the number of /R option is assigned. When the number of reserved drives specified with the /R option is fewer than the number of valid partitions on a disk, the number of reserved drives takes priority. For example, if there are four valid partitions on the disk and the number of reserved drives is specified at 3, a logical drive name cannot be assigned to the fourth partition, and hence it cannot be accessed.
* /I {h:} m {[n]} {+-{h:} m {[n]}}+-...
(Specify the drive ID) This parameter specifies the target MO drive by the host adapter number and SCSI-ID number. If this option is not used, all accessible MO drives are used by default. h is the host adapter number (between 0 and 9). The default is 0. m is the SCSI-ID number (0 to 7). n is the number of reserved drives. When 'n' is omitted, the value specified with the /R option is used.
* /U:{IDE adapter name}
(Required, specify IDE adapter driver) This parameter is not optional but required both for ATAPIMO.FLT and MODISK.DMD. You must specify same name for these two drivers. Usually '/U:ST506_HardDrive' works fine if 'IBM1S506.ADD' or 'IBM2S506.ADD' is used as IDE adapter driver.

Crystal OS/2 audio device drivers for the PCI bus family (CS4614, CS4624, CS4630 and CS4280)
 
  BASEDEV=CWCMMPM.SYS
 
Parameter:
 
/N:CWCAUD1$ Name of PDD
 
<b>NOTE</b>When you have no WinOS installed check after installing (and before rebooting) if there is any of these WinOS2 drivers in your config.sys.
 
  DEVICE=drive:\MMOS2\CWWINPDD.SYS
  DEVICE=drive:\MMOS2\CWWINVDD.SYS
  DEVICE=drive:\MMOS2\CWVOPL3.SYS
  RUN=drive:\MMOS2\CWDAEMON.EXE
 
If yes REM or delete them, otherwise you may get get a trap with PMMERGE and QUERYMCD at boot. Tested with Warp 4, FP15.
 
<b>NOTE</b>: When you have the Flash Navigator Plug-In installed make shure to use at least driver Version 3.08 or higher, otherwise your system will freeze.
 
<b>TIP</b>: Andreas Paulick reported that it is possible to get the TurtleBeach SantaCruz and the Videologic SonicFury working if you use the CWOS2311.ZIP driver package. Additionally you have to search the two TLV2465 Operational amplifier chips on the soundboards and disconnect there pins 8 and 9. This step disables the shutdown terminal (only necessary for conserving battery life in portables).

* /REQ
This parameter controlls USBD driver initialization: driver at initalization time checks for listed host controller drivers and fails to install if none of listed drivers is loaded. Current version of USB stack supports the following parameter codings:
 
* /REQ:USBUHCD$
* /REQ:CWUSBUHC$ USBD driver is loaded only if UHCI compliant host driver is loaded
 
* /REQ:USBOHCD$
* /REQ:CWUSBOHC$ USBD driver is loaded only if OHCI compliant host driver is loaded
 
* /REQ:USBUHCD$,USBOHCD$,CWUSBOHC$,CWUSBUHC$
USBD driver is loaded only if one of OHCI/UHCI compliant host drivers is loaded. This most general form of parameter and must be used in
most cases.

  BASEDEV=CWUSBMSD.ADD
 
'''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

=BASEDEV=DANIATAPI.FLT=
This highly recommended filter driver by Daniela Engert (dani@ngrt.de) supports all types of ATAPI devices. It is a superset of IBMIDECD.FLT, IBMATAPI.FLT and DaniADsk.FLT, and supports all devices that the mentioned drivers do. Additionally, all ATAPI devices can be accessed through the OS/2 ASPI software interface. Each EIDE channel shows up as a SCSI channel, and each ATAPI device as a SCSI device (master = SCSI ID 0, slave = SCSI ID 1).
 
'''NOTE:''' Make sure that all other ATAPI related drivers are inactive or come after DaniATAPI.FLT in your CONFIG.SYS. If you intend to run the BootOS utility or to install this filter driver on a 8.3-only filesystem, rename the driver to DaniATAP.FLT.
 
* can deal with the ATAPI ZIP-250
* improved ZIP performance (up to factor 4 on ZIP-250)
* supports arbitrary swapping of 100MB and 250MB media
* reflects the current media capacity up to FDISK, DISKIO or the like
* OS/2 boot from ZIP is possible
* faster 32bit PIO in conjunction with DANIS506.ADD (rel. 1.1.1 or later)
* Busmaster DMA mode works and is tested with Intel, VIA, AMD, HPT, SiS and CMD chipsets until now. Busmaster DMA is available now for ALi as well (CD/DVD-ROM is safe, but some chip revisions fail on DMA write operations!). Due to hardware limitations there is no 32bit PIO and no busmaster DMA possible for ATAPI devices attached to a Promise Ultra controller.
* ATAPI devices appear to the rest of the system as regular SCSI-2 devices if used with DANIS506.ADD (rel. 1.1.5 or later). This may be disabled globally or individually.
* advanced "hot-swap" support if used with DANIS506.ADD (rel. 1.1.9 or later)
* support for PCCard (formerly: PCMCIA) ATAPI devices (like the Iomega PCMCIA ZIP-250 or the Iomega Click!40)
* the translation of old-style 6-byte SCSI commands into their more modern 10-byte counterparts is no longer hardcoded. The device is sensed now to check if it requires this translation.
* like DaniS506.ADD, this driver stores boot messages internally for later readout. To view them, issue "copy ATAPI$ con:", to dump them into a file, issue "copy ATAPI$ anyfile".
* automatic media unload on shutdown if desired
* supports up to eight IDE channels
 
  BASEDEV=DANIATAPI.FLT
 
'''Parameter:'''
This driver supports all switches and options that IBM1ATAPI.FLT supports.
 
'''Generic options'''
* /!V
(quiet) (not) Verbose mode
 
* /EJ
(don't eject) eject medium at shutdown
 
* /ZA
(default mapping) map ZIP drive to A:
 
* /!SCSI
(export all) don't export any ATAPI devices as SCSI devices
 
'''Adapter options'''
 
* /A:n (n/a) Adapter number (0, 1, 2, 3)
 
* /I (off) Ignore adapter
 
* /EJ (don't eject) eject medium at shutdown
 
* /!SCSI (export all) (don't) export ATAPI devices as SCSI devices
 
'''Unit options'''
 
* /U:n
(n/a) Unit number (0, 1)
 
* /UNIT:n
same as /U
 
* /I
(off) Ignore unit
 
* /EJ
(don't eject) eject medium at shutdown
 
* /!SCSI
(export) (don't) export ATAPI devices as SCSI devices
 
* /RSJ
(off) RSJ CDROM backdoor. Installs an additional backdoor to re-enable regular CD ROM operation via OS2CDROM.DMD (or replacements).
 
* /TYPE:
Units marked as "hot-swappable" on DANIS506.ADD's command line (by /FORCE /ATAPI) need the new option /TYPE: to advice DaniATAPI.FLT to report appropriate device types to the device managers. The same applies to PCCard adapter channels (marked as /FORCE /PCMCIA on DANIS506.ADD's command line). This is done by additional characters designating the supported device types:
 
# 'c' or 'C': all CD-ROM like devices (CD-ROM, CD-R/W, DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM)
# 'z' or 'Z': all ZIP drives
# 'l' or 'L': the LS-120 drive
# 'w' or 'W': all CD writer like devices (CD-R/W, DVD-RAM)

DaniBoot.FLT is a enhanced filter driver which allows to boot OS/2 from a CD-ROM.
 
The boot image may be split into two images on the CD-ROM medium to accomodate space requirements for BASEDEVs. These two images need to be physically adjacent on the medium! The first part of the images needs to be of standard floppy size (1.44MB or 2.88MB) or the BIOS might not accept the image as a bootable one.
 
  BASEDEV=DANIBOOT.FLT
 
'''Parameter:'''
 
* /D:n
total number of 1.44MB pseudo-images comprising the boot image
 
* /N:name
the image name to search for in case of multiple boot images. may contain any character except for white space. The length of name is 11 characters or less; excess characters are discarded.

=BASEDEV=DANIDASD.DMD=
Replacement Driver for OS2DASD.DMD by Daniela Engert supports also Partiontypes 0E, 0B, 0C, 8F and 0F to ease the coexistance with WinXY and Linux.
 
For a discussion of these types see: Introduction, Partition types.
 
  BASEDEV=DANIDASD.DMD
 
'''Enhancements:'''
 
it supports extendedX partitions (type 0F) and Linux extended partitions (type 8F, even more clueless and useless than the Microsoft invented type 0F !) exactly the same as regular extended partitions (type 05). ExtendedX partitions are common today because of disks larger than 8GiB.
 
It supports FAT32 partitions (type 0B and 0C) exactly as IFS partitions (type 07, used by HPFS and NTFS). This way FAT32 partitions show up in "correct" order (w.r.t. the disk layout), and are assigned drive letters "as expected". PARTFILT.FLT is no longer necessary to make FAT32 partitions accessable, but Henk Kelder's FAT32.IFS is still required.
 
It supports FAT16X partitions (type 0E) exactly as big FAT16 (type 06) partitions.
 
'''Parameter''' (the driver supports all parameter the OS2DASD.DMD supports, so take a look at the link too) :
 
* /AT:{,{,...}}
Must be two digits hexadecimal. Supports up to eight additional partition types as specified by by the user. This is meant for making hidden partitions (types 1x) or foreign file systems like Linux's ext2 (type 83) visible to the DASD manager. You have to tell DaniDASD.DMD the additional partition types by means of the parameter.
 
To summarize the notion of acceptable partition types, have a look at
this table:
 
DASD manager partition types supported
extended regular
OS2DASD (pre-LVM): 05 01, 04, 06, 07
OS2DASD (LVM): 05, 0F 01, 04, 06, 07, 35, [+ other]
DaniDASD: 05, 0F, 8F 01, 04, 06, 07, 0B, 0C, 0E, [+ other]
 
If an additional partition type is a "hidden" partition (1x), then a
matching partition is propagated to its "not-hidden" counterpart (0x) and
the acceptance rules above apply.
 
* /BD:
Overwrites the boot drive letter assignment from fisrt boot stage. Can overcome boot problems which result in "can't operate hard disk" messages. This is common if OS/2 is booted without proper help of OS/2 Bootmanager which is required to notify OS/2 of the *correct* boot drive letter. If there is no boot manager with this capability available (e.g. when booting from removable media), or the boot manager fails to figure out the correct boot drive letter, you can tell DaniDASD.DMD the correct one by means of the parameter.
 
'''Example:''' in a mixed SCSI/EIDE environment with two SCSI adapters and
and two different EIDE controllers involved (my current setup
at home), the ATAPI ZIP250 drive gets assigned drive letter M:.
To boot from this unit I have this line in CONFIG.SYS of the
ZIP boot floppy
 
  BASEDEV=DaniDASD.DMD /BD:M
 
 
* /MT:
can create a logical volume map independently from the physical volumes (partitions).
 
'''CAUTION''' when this option is in effect, DaniDASD no longer follows the old OS2DASD rule of accepting only the first acceptable partition in the primary partition table. Instead, the LVM rule of accepting all acceptable primary partitions applies!
 
After scanning the *fixed* disks for acceptable partitions following the rules above, a logical volume mapping is created from these partitions. This is done by means of a map table. This table lists the partitions which are to be given a drive letter in ascending, consecutive order, starting from drive letter C:. A particular physical partition is indicated by a two-letter code
number>. Code "Aa" indicates the first partition on the first disk, "Ab" the second partition on the same disk, "Bc" the third partition on the second disk, and so on. The numbering of disks and partitions is given by the regular scanning order of DaniDASD.
 
Each entry in the mapping table must be unique, entries without an existing partition are ignored.
 
'''Example:'''
 
  BASEDEV=DaniDASD.DMD /MT:Aa,Ad,Ba,Bb
 
creates logical volumes C:..F: from the indicated physical partitions.
 
'''CAUTION''' this does *not* apply to removable media units! Their driveletters *always* follow the fixed disk ones.
 
'''NOTE''' DANIDASD.DMD does not work with OS2LVM.DMD, so use it in NON-LVM Systems only.
 
 
'''NOTE''' Together with DANIDASD.DMD the use of PARTFILT.FLT is no longer necessary to access FAT32 drives.
 
'''TIP''' You may also need a FAT32 aware FDISK.EXE. It was included in FP10 - FP14 for Warp4
 
'''TIP''' By [[Daniela Engert]]:
'''You want to get rid of the LVM layer in WSeB/ACP/MCP/eCS ?'''
I checked that on an old WSeB installation with only compatibility volumes, yesterday. I removed these two lines in CONFIG.SYS
 
  BASEDEV=OS2DASD.DMD // the LVM-aware DASD manager
  BASEDEV=OS2LVM.DMD // the LVM layer
 
and added this single line
 
  BASEDEV=DaniDASD.DMD // the non-LVM-aware DASD manager
 
The system behaved DASD wise like an ordinary Warp4 system afterwards. A Warp4 OS2DASD.DMD will do as well.

This filter driver makes the ext2 partition visible to OS/2. Read the inf make OS/2 see your Linux ext2fs partitions.'. ext2-ifs documentation for more information
 
  BASEDEV=Ext2flt.flt parameter
 
Parameters:
 
* /Q
Disable the messages shown at boot up.
 
* /V
Displays some diagnostic information during the boot.
 
* /W
This allows write access to the ext2 partitions.
note: You must also enable the write access at the Ext2-os2.ifs driver.
 
* /A
Virtualize all found partitions. If you use this option, you must also specify the /M option, otherwise OS/2 may crash. The only good reason to use this option is along with the /M option to control the mounting order of all partitions.
 
* /M mount-order
Mounts the partitions in the order specified in the mount-order. The mount-order is a list of numbers separated by commas. To find out which number a partition has, use the program fdisk with the parameter /Query. It shows you a list of all partitions, number the first in the list with 0, the second with 1 and so on, but exclude the Bootmanager partition. The Bootmanager partition is the partition with the FStyp "0a". Type in the partition numbers in the order you like. If you want to hide a partition than you must simply remove the partition number from the mount-order.

The Base Device Drivers are needed by OS/2 to install elementary services, like your hard disk, keyboard, etc. The Base Device Drivers are the first entries from the config.sys file that are loaded during the boot. They are not loaded in the same order as they appear in the config.sys file. They are loaded dependent on their file extension.

Here is the order of loading for the file extensions.

  1. *.SYS
  2. *.BID
  3. *.VSD
  4. *.TSD
  5. *.ADD - Adapter Device Driver
  6. *.I13
  7. *.FLT - Filter
  8. *.DMD - Device Manager

If the CONFIG.SYS contains several files with the same extension, those files will be loaded in the order they appear in the CONFIG.SYS file.

The Base Device drivers must be located in the root directory in the \OS2 directory or in the \OS2\BOOT directory. If you set up a Base Device driver in your CONFIG.SYS please use only the name of the driver without the path. The following pages describe these entries:
