6.5.3 Installing the SYMCD.SYS Driver
To install the SYMCD.SYS driver, follow these steps:
Step 1. Copy the SYMCD.SYS driver to the boot disk.
The SDMS Software Device Drivers and Utilities CD-ROM
contains the
SYMCD.SYS driver in this directory:
{CD-ROM Drive Letter}:\DRIVERS\DOS
Step 2. Add SYMCD.SYS to the CONFIG.SYS file.
It goes in after ASPI8XX.SYS and SYMDISK.SYS (if this driver is
also being used), in this order:
DEVICE=C:[PATH]ASPI8XX.SYS
DEVICE=C:[PATH]SYMDISK.SYS
DEVICE=C:[PATH]SYMCD.SYS /D:NAME
Note: The /D: is not a drive letter designation; it indicates the
name to be assigned to the CD-ROM. You must include the
NAME , which can use any combination of up to eight
characters. This is the same NAME to be used in conjunction
with MSCDEX.EXE (see next page).
Step 3. Add the MS-DOS LASTDRIVE command to the CONFIG.SYS file
to ensure that sufficient drive letters are available to identify all
devices connected to the SCSI bus:
LASTDRIVE=
where specifies a drive letter in the range C
through Z. The letter assigned to LASTDRIVE represents the last
valid drive MS-DOS is able to recognize and also represents
the maximum number of drives available. For example,
LASTDRIVE=K allows access to eleven (11) logical drives. For
further details about LASTDRIVE , consult the MS-DOS manual.
Step 4. Execute the Microsoft CD-ROM Extension ( MSCDEX.EXE ) from
the AUTOEXEC.BAT file in order to access the drive, unless the
CD-ROM access software specifies otherwise. Add the
following line to the
AUTOEXEC.BAT file:
[PATH]MSCDEX /D:NAME
For example, if:
DEVICE=C:[PATH]SYMCD.SYS /D:MY_CD
