6. The default IDE configuration is usually set to automatic which reports the following parameters: Cyl = 14848 Head = 9 Sector = 63 Workaround: Run setup to apply the following IDE configuration values: Cyl = 8174 Head = 16 Sector = 63 Final Fix: Contact IBM or connect to the following web site to obtain the new IBM IDE driver: http://service.software.ibm.com/os2ddpak/html/os_2comp/ Tip 20) NetServer LPr, LH 3 and LH 4 CD-ROM must be configured as "Non-Listed IDE CD-ROM" When installing OS/2 Warp Server make sure you configure the CD-ROM as "Non Listed IDE". Otherwise you may experience system hangs after the second reboot during the installation process. Also, see issue number seven listed above. Tip 21) NetServer LH 3 Embeded SCSI and Raid Adapter Configuration The Hewlett Packard NetServer LH 3 can be configured to use either SYM8XX.ADD or MRAID.ADD or both cuncorrently. See Tip 13 listed above and Consideration 3 listed below for information related to installing OS/2. Consult the NetServer user's guide for information on how to configure the embeded SCSI or Raid ports. Tip 22) Installing Multiple D5013 NICs If you are installing more than one PCI adapter: 1. Complete the configuration process with the MPTS configuration utility, but leave the Slot field blank for each driver; 2. Restart the system and record the list of Slots that each driver displays; 3. Complete the configuration by assigning one of the values from the list to the Slot parameter of each driver. Leave the field blank if you have only one adapter installed. 10
