7.1 Introduction
The OS/2 operating system version 4.0 or later provides an integrated
platform featuring the Presentation Manager graphical windowing
interface that allows multiple applications to be viewed at the same time.
Multitasking is also supported, enabling several different programs to run
at the same time in different windows. Presentation Manager allows you
to switch between programs, start other programs, and maintain files and
directories.
This version of OS/2 requires an x86 or higher microprocessor. Other
hardware requirements include a minimum of 8 Mbytes of RAM and a
minimum hard disk drive size of 90 Mbytes. SDMS 4.0 provides the
necessary SCSI device drivers for OS/2, which are
SYM8XX.ADD and
SYM_HI.ADD . LSI Logic recommends reviewing the OS/2 manual prior to
proceeding.
