17.

This step is not required if you are using Warp 4.0 (Merlin) or Warp Server SMP 4.0.

The IBM bundled driver passed all Hewlett Packard tests. You can use the HP SCSI driver

aic7870.add if you suspect any issues with the IBM driver. Next, apply the HP version of the

AIC7870.ADD driver. Insert the Drivers/Utility diskette in drive A. Enter the following

commands:

C:

Where C: is your boot driver.

CD \OS2\BOOT

COPY AIC7870.ADD AIC7870.IBM

COPY A:\7800\AIC7800.ADD C:

18.

Shutdown and reboot the system to activate the new drivers.

Procedure #2: Apply Hewlett-Packard specific drivers to IBM "Diskette 1" and then

Install IBM OS/2 product using standard IBM installation process.

Please read the information provided in Section 1 of this document before starting the

installation.

The fundamental difference between Procedure #1 and #2 is at what point the Hewlett-Packard

drivers are applied. Procedure #1 adds those drivers after the installation is completed. Procedure

#2 adds the Hewlett-Packard disk array driver to the copy of IBM "Diskette 1" called "Work

Diskette 1" before the installation starts. Please note that this procedure is still using the IBM

version of AIC7870.ADD driver to complete the installation. You can replace the

AIC7870.ADD to the one that applies to your system.

Phase 1: Create copy of IBM "Diskette 1" label it "Work Diskette 1"

1.

Create the Drivers/Utilities diskette using the HP Navigator CD-ROM (see "Section 2" of

this document).

2.

Create a copy of IBM "Diskette 1" and label it "Work Diskette 1".

Use a spare PC running DOS, OS/2 or NT to make a copy of the original IBM Diskette 1. It

is recommended that you label this copy "Work Diskette 1".

Insert IBM "Diskette 1" in drive A and enter the following command:

DISKCOPY A: A:

Phase 2: On "Work Diskette 1" update CONFIG.SYS and copy new drivers

3.

Edit CONFIG.SYS on "Work Diskette 1" to add the HP SCSI and driver for disk array

adapter if one is present.
