About This Book
Purpose
IBM RT PC Options Installation shows you how to install optional
adapters and drives in the IBM RT Personal Computer
®
. The book
is written to cover every possible IBM RT PC system setup
situation. Because each system is different, the book cannot tell
you, in all cases, the exact slot for each adapter. The book does
provide, however, the possible slots you can use, depending on the
combination of adapters you have. The book also tells you where
to install each of the optional drives.
This book provides step-by-step instructions to help you install
optional adapters, fixed-disk drives, and diskette drives in the IBM
6150 system units and optional adapters in the IBM 6151 system
unit. These instructions apply whether you are installing options in
a new system or adding options to a system already in use.
Who Should Read This Book
This book is written for a person trained to install drives and
adapters in IBM RT PC system units. The only tools needed are a
small and a medium flat-bladed screwdriver.
Task may go smoother if only one person reads and follows the
steps. However, two or more people should handle the heavier
devices.
