Extended BIOS Translation is used only with MS-DOS 5.0 or
above. You do not need to enable this option if you are using
another operating system such as NetWare, OS/s, Windows NT,
or UNIX.
When you partition a disk larger than 1 GByte, use the MS-DOS
disk utility as you normally would. Because the cylinder size
increases to 8 Mbytes under extended translation, the partition
size you choose must be a multiple of 8Mbytes. If you request a
size that is not a multiple of 8MBytes, fdisk rounds up to the
nearest whole multiple of 8MBytes.
n
Display <Ctrl-A> Message during BIOS Initialization –
This option determines whether the Press <Ctrl> <A> for
SCSISelect ™ Utility message appears on your screen
during system boot up. The default setting is Enabled. If
this setting is disabled, you can still invoke the SCSISelect
utility by pressing <Ctrl> <A> after the host adapter BIOS
banner appears.
n
Multiple LUN Support – This option determines whether
booting from a SCSI device that has multiple LUNs is
supported. The default setting is Disabled. Enable this
option if your boot device has multiple LUNs.
n
Support for Ultra SCSI Speed – This option determines
whether the host adapter supports the fast transfer rates
(13.4, 16,20.0) of Ultra SCSI devices. The default setting is
Disabled.
