Configuration Procedure

BT-946C, Rev. A and B Only

Insert the board into the bus master slot, and using the AutoSCSI utility:

• Set the "Adapter BIOS Supports Space > 1 GB (DOS) only" option to Yes if the boot disk is larger than 1 Gbyte.

• Put the adapter in ISA-compatible mode by setting the value for "Set Host Bus Adapter I/O Port Address as Default" to No.

• Ensure the Advanced option "BIOS Support for > 2 Drives (DOS 5.0 or above)" is set to No.

• Configure the IRQ and BIOS address values manually if your PCI motherboard is not fully PCI-specification compliant. If the system hangs while installing the Solaris software, do the following:

  • Check the IRQ jumpers on the motherboard, if any.

  • Run the CMOS utility to set the IRQ and BIOS addresses, if any.

  • Run the BusLogic AutoSCSI utility.

  All the settings should match each other. If you need to manually configure the BIOS address, you may have to check jumpers JP4 and JP5.
