Installation

The INI-9XXX driver developed for OS/2 will be installed on the disk drive used for

system initialization. The driver is loaded during the system boot routine and will remain

resident on the drive. Installation of the drivers can be accomplished by following one

of the procedures listed:

• New OS/2 Installation

• Adding INI-9XXX host adapter to existing OS/2

The steps used to install the Initio drivers have different system requirements that may

affect basic operation if not installed properly. It is strongly suggested that the selected

procedure be read and understood before proceeding. Please read all instructions

carefully.

New OS/2 installation:

These instructions will guide you through the Initio OS/2 device driver and OS/2 installa-

tion at the same time. The program can be installed from floppy diskettes or from CD-

ROM. The OS/2 driver for the INI-9XXX will be found on the

proceeding further.
