4. List of existing disk parameter sets
The Golden Gate BIOS contains a series of hard disk parameter sets, which
can be selected here. If No. 15 is selected, the parameters can be entered
manually. We point out explicitly that a hard disk drive will only work properly,
if the parameters selected here are exactly corrccl.
The exact parameters can usually be taken from I he manual for a certain hard
disk drive.

Note:
It will always be tried first to load MS-DOS from
MS-DOS floppy disk drive A. If there is no disk in
the drive or if it does not contain any valid data,
MS-DOS might still be loaded from MS-DOS drive
C by pressing the <ENTER> key.
MS-DOS is loaded from MS-DOS drive C on
principle.
You have to pay attention to the following particularity in using a PC/XT hard
disk controller (e.g. WD1002,OMTl5520/27, Adaptec 2072) or a SCSI host
adapter ( e.g AHA 1540) In a PC slot of the Amiga: If no more than 5 I 2 KB
RAM are installed on Golden Gate, Golden Gate must be started with the
option DBA, i.e. the emulator then has 512 KB DOS base memory and
Extended Memory consisting of parts of the Amiga RAM. This particularity
becomes void as soon as 1MB RAM (or more) have been installed on Golden
Gate. The emulator then starts normally and has the full amount of 640KB
DOS base memory and Extended Memory. In both cases the Type must be set
to none in the Golden Gate Setup program under Hard Disk Setup.
