Chapter 3 – SCSI Installation

3-9

BIOS Location Address

The BIOS requires 16K bytes in memory. This may be mapped in six loca-

tions from C8000H through DFFFFH. Define a location which does not con-

flict with other system devices.

Hardware Interrupt Enable

The hardware interrupts may be enabled or disabled. There is an incompati-

bility among the module's BIOS, DOS 4.0.1, and some CPU's BIOS. This

incompatibility causes the system to stop running during a SCSI boot opera-

tion. However, this is not a problem when the SCSI drive is not the boot de-

vice or when a DOS version other than 4.0.1 is being used. In situations

where DOS 4.0.1 has to be used and the SCSI drive has to be the boot de-

vice, interrupts may be disabled and the system will boot correctly.

BIOS Functionality

The BIOS will only support SCSI disk drives and will support a maximum of

two drives. The BIOS only recognizes target:LUN values of 0:0 and 1:0. If

there is one SCSI drive, assign its target number to 0:0. If there are two

SCSI drives, assign their target numbers to 0:0 and 1:0. The BIOS will not

recognize any drives with target numbers 2:0 and higher.
If there are two standard drives, the BIOS will not connect any SCSI drives.

However, if there is one standard drive, a maximum of one SCSI drive will

be connected by the BIOS. If there are no standard drives, the BIOS will

connect a maximum of two SCSI drives. Use the drivers to overcome these

limitations.
The BIOS will assign SCSI drives sequentially after the standard hard drive.

That is, if there is one standard drive and a SCSI drive, the standard drive

will be assigned to C: and the SCSI drive (0:0) will be assigned to D:. If

there are no standard drives and one SCSI drive, the SCSI drive (0:0) will be

assigned to C:. If there are no standard drives and two SCSI drives, the SCSI

drive (0:0) will be assigned to C: and the SCSI drive (1:0) will be assigned to

D:.

BIOS Booting Contentions

When a SCSI drive is assigned to C: and there is no floppy diskette installed

in A:, the BIOS will attempt to boot from the SCSI drive 0:0 assigned to C:.

If there is a diskette in A:, the system BIOS will attempt to boot from A:.
If a standard drive is assigned to C:, then the system BIOS will attempt to

boot from the standard drive and no attempt will be made to boot from the

SCSI drive.
