Master Disk/Slave Disk
When you select either the Master Disk or Slave Disk icon from the
Standard Setup window, a list of hard disk types displays.
Scroll through the list to locate the correct type of disk drive in your
computer.
As you scroll through the disk types, the drive Type displays, along
with values for cylinders, heads, write precompensation, landing
zone, sectors and size. Available drive types are listed at the end of
this section. If the parameters supplied by the manufacturer of your
disk drive do not match any of these preprogrammed drive types,
you may select the USER drive type to enter the parameters manual-
ly as described below.
Not Installed is available for use as an option. This option can be
used for diskless work stations.
NOTE: If the hard disk is an IDE drive, you may use the
DetectMaster or DetectSlave option in the Utility window of the
WinBIOS Setup Main Menu to automatically configure the hard disk
type. This allows WinBIOS to detect the IDE drive parameters and
report them on the Master Disk and Slave Disk screens. The
DetectMaster and DetectSlave options are described in the Running
WinBIOS Setup section of this manual.
User-Defined Drive Types
If the parameters supplied by the manufacturer of your disk drive do
not match any of the preprogrammed drive types in the drive type
table, you may enter the parameters manually.
Scroll to the end of the drive type list, select the USER option and
press the <Enter> key.
