Return to The Config.sys Documentation Project Main Page

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.

Here is the order of loading for the file extensions.

  • *.SYS
  • *.BID
  • *.VSD
  • *.TSD
  • *.ADD
  • *.I13
  • *.FLT
  • *.DMD

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 : :p.

BASEDEV=Aha152x.add

Driver for Adaptec Aha1522/1510 SCSI host adapters and the AIC-6350/6360 controller. 

BASEDEV=Aha152x.add parameter

Parameters:

  • /V
  • /F:x

TIP: If you are using an Adaptec SCSI Card you can also use BASEDEV=AHA152X.ADD /V /F:x to force the target SCSI ID x. The host adapter will assume that the target ID x is connected to SCSI Bus.

Platform Support:

OS/2 2.x OS/2 3.0 OS/2 4.0 OS/2 4.5x eCS 1.x eCs 2.x
Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes

BASEDEV=Aha154x.add

Driver for the Adaptec Aha1540/1542 SCSI host adapters. 

BASEDEV=Aha154x.add parameter

Parameters

  • /V
  • /DBUFF

Loose access to RAM above 16M.

  • /A:0
  • /BON
  • /BOFF:8


TIP: By Prof. C.W. Fischer Physics Department Director CPES Micro-Computer Lab. Users may be interested in a undocumented parameter on the Adaptec AHA154x.add file i.e /DBUFF. Anyone using this SCSI adapter without /DBUFF will loose access to RAM above 16M. It's a Bus mastering problem on ISA (thanks to Steven Levine).

NOTE: When you use Seagate Backup Exec for OS/2 Warp, Version 3.0 with both a hard drive and a SCSI or QIC backup device connected you have to add - to avoid DMA errors - the following to your driver line to prevent BUS errors: /V /A:0 /BON /A:0 /BOFF:8

BASEDEV=Aic7770.add

Driver for the Adaptec AHA-2840QVL/2842VL/2740/2742 SCSI host adapters and for the AIC-7770 controller. 

BASEDEV=Aic7770.add parameter

Universal Parameters:

  • /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.

  • /PCIHW

Enables driver to access PCI configuration hardware registers. This switch is implemented because in some PCI systems, accessing PCI configuration space through PCI BIOS function calls causes problems. This switch is enabled by default. New with Version 3.02

  • /!PCIHW

Disables the PCIHW switch. This parameter will cause the driver to access the PCI configuration space through PCI BIOS function calls. New with version 3.02

General Unit Parameters:

  • /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: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.

TIP: 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.

NOTE= 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 800.628.2283 or 916.356.3105.

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

NOTE This driver is fully substituted by the DANIATPI.FLT

Parameters

  • /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.

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.
