12.5 Important Additional Information

This section provides information regarding specific driver options and
various DOS dependencies.

12.5.1 Specific Driver Options

This document addresses options available on the SDMS NWPA HAM
drivers, versions 4.02.00 or later. For information pertaining to a specific
driver, please do one of the following:

For NetWare version 4.XX, consult the

*.DDI

file for options available

for

LSI8XXNW.HAM

,

LSIHINW.HAM

, and/or

LSI_U3NW.HAM

drivers.

Refer to the NetWare installation utility to access these files.

Load the driver specifying the ? option on the command line of the

LSI8XXNW.HAM

,

LSIHINW.HAM

, and/or

LSI_U3NW.HAM

drivers. The

system displays the available options for the driver without loading
the driver.

12.5.2 DOS Access Dependencies

Typically, NetWare requires access to the DOS partition (perhaps to load
a file or to shutdown the system). The

LSI8XXNW.HAM

,

LSIHINW.HAM

,

and/or

LSI_U3NW.HAM

drivers support several SDMS DOS

configurations.

The HAM drivers detect whether an older SDMS 4.XX BIOS exists on
the system and if the

ASPI8XX.SYS

DOS driver is loaded. If you are using

the unsupported SDMS 3.XX BIOS or using an older supported SDMS
4.XX, then

ASPI8XX.SYS

(version 4.10 or greater) must also be loaded.

Note:

LSI8XXNW.HAM

,

LSIHINW.HAM

, and

LSI_U3NW.HAM

do not

support the SDMS 3.XX DOS drivers:

DOSCAM

and

MINICAM

.

12.5.3 Supported DOS Configurations

The HAM drivers support these DOS configurations:

SDMS 4.18 or greater BIOS (No DOS Drivers required)

SDMS 4.XX BIOS,

ASPI8XX.SYS

(version 4.10 or greater)

No SDMS BIOS,

ASPI8XX.SYS
