#Losing CD-ROM Driver
2 messages in this thread
I have a Texel 3024 and your T130 adapter card. I successfully loaded OS/2 2.1
after receiving your good advice, but I lose the driver on subsequent reboots.
The OS/2 message states that T13BSCSI.ADD was not installed. I have this file
in both C:\ & C:\OS2.
The following is an abbreviated CONFIG.SYS that was created on the last good
OS/2 install (I have installed the system only 23 times so far, so a few more
installes won't hurt<g>)
BASEDEV=PRINT01.SYS
BASEDEV=IBM1FLPY.ADD
BASEDEV=T13BSCSI.ADD
BASEDEV=OS2DASD.DMD
DEVICE=C:\OS2\OS2CDROM.DMD /Q
IFS=C:\OS2\CDFS.IFS /Q
BASEDEV=OS2SCSI.DMD
IBM(Boca) had me change the T13B driver around the CONFIG.SYS but it had no
effect. I have had some luck in copying a new T13B driver from my CIS Download
directory to OS/2, but that has failed to allow the CD-ROM to load the last 5
or 6 times.
My gut instinct tells me that there is a file corruption occuring, but I can
not isolate it. I downloaded your drivers from your BBS and still have the .ZIP
file intact, so I believe that when I copy the T13B drivers over to the OS/2
dir, that I have good files there.
Need your help!

BASEDEV=T13BSCSI.ADD BASEDEV=OS2DASD.DMD DEVICE=C:\OS2\OS2CDROM.DMD /Q <—–
this is wrong! it should be:
<— BASEDEV=OS2CDROM.DMD IFS=C:\OS2\CDFS.IFS
/Q BASEDEV=OS2SCSI.DMD
That may get you working! This seems to be a common error from the IBM Install
program for some reason.
