6-43 Booting OS/2 from a SMART-2DH Array Controller Drive This section describes additional information on booting a system from a Compaq SMART-2DH Array Controller. The CPQARRAY.ADD driver must always be present when booting from a SMART-2DH Controller (the Compaq IAES is not a bootable device). If a SMART-2DH Controller is the primary disk controller, edit the CONFIG.SYS file and make sure the "BASEDEV=CPQARRAY.ADD" entry in the file is the first BASEDEV entry present. This will guarantee that the CPQARRAY.ADD driver will be the first ADD driver loaded and thus cause OS/2 to assign the first hard drive on the first SMART-2DH Controller as the boot drive. For example: BASEDEV=CPQARRAY.ADD BASEDEV=CPQ53CX.ADD If OS/2 will be booting from another controller, order the other controller first: BASEDEV=AMSI02.ADD BASEDEV=CPQARRAY.ADD SMART-2DH Array Controller Reference Guide Writer: Pamela King Project: SMART-2DH Array Controller Reference Guide Comments: 295469-002 File Name: G-CH06.DOC Last Saved On: 2/27/98 12:01 PM COMPAQ CONFIDENTIAL - NEED TO KNOW REQUIRED
