The OS/2 installation itself is carried out according to the OS/2 installation program.
After having completed the installation, you should check that the OS/2 CONFIG.SYS file
created during the OS/2 installation contains the following line:
BASEDEV=GDTX000.ADD /V
and that the driver GDTX000.ADD is either in the OS/2 or the root directory:
GDTX000.ADD
or
\OS2\GDTX000.ADD
If this line is missing you have to add it to your CONFIG.SYS file. If the GDT driver
GDTX000.ADD is not in the OS/2 or root directory, copy it there.

If OS/2 has been installed from an OS/2 CD, you may skip this chapter as well as chapters
E.4.1 and E.4.2. A CD-ROM drive (standing for any other
Not Direct Access Device
) can be ac-
cessed under OS/2 either directly through the OS/2 driver
OS2SCSI.DMD
, or the OS/2 ASPI
Manager
OS2ASPI.DMD
, or, for example, through corelSCSI for OS/2.
We presume that the CD-ROM drive has been properly connected to the ICP Controller. This
includes that the SCSI-ID and the SCSI bus terminators are set in accordance with the set-
tings of the already present SCSI devices (i. e., the SCSI-ID set for the CD-ROM drive is not
occupied by another device; resistor terminators are located at the two ends of the SCSI bus
only).

Click the OS/2
System
icon on the OS/2 Presentation Manager. Then select "System
Setup" and then "Selective Install".

Confirm the system configuration with "OK".

Now click "CD-ROM Device Support" in the window opening and select the CD-ROM
drive. Hereafter click "OK".

Click
Install
now and the installation begins. The system will ask you to insert further
OS/2 system disks or select an appropriate path on the hard disk.

After the installation is completed and OS/2 is started again, the CD-ROM drive can
be accessed.

Add the following line to the CONFIG.SYS file, using, for example, the OS/2 system
editor
BASEDEV=OS2ASPI.DMD
6WHS
Now the driver GDTX000.ADD has to be
configured in a manner that allows only the
ASPI Manager to access the CD-ROM drive (identified by its SCSI-ID, which in our example
is SCSI-ID 6):
BASEDEV=GDTX0000.ADD /V /A:0 /AM:(0,6)
