5.2 Starting the Host Adapter Flash Utility
The utility’s executable name is mptutil.exe . This utility requires the
DOS extender, dos4gw.exe , to operate. LSI strongly recommends that
you copy both files to a DOS bootable diskette and execute the utility
from this diskette. Either MS-DOS or PC-DOS is acceptable. No memory
manager or other drivers beyond the minimum required should be
installed via the
config.sys file. The utility can optionally be executed
from a hard drive. However, the drive should not be connected to an
adapter board that you are updating, and the DOS4GW extender should
reside in the same directory as the
mptutil.exe executable file.
Note: The host adapter must have an onboard flash in order to
use this utility.
Follow these steps to start the Host Adapter Flash Utility:
1. Insert the diskette into drive A:.
2. Boot the system to the DOS prompt a:\>.
3. Type mputil and press Enter.
DOS4GW will be loaded automatically if it is located in the same
directory as the utility or is in the defined path. The main menu
appears, as shown in
Figure 5.1 .
