MCMaster and the Intel Above Board
Some versions of the Intel Above Board use a boot track initializer; this means
that, in order for the PS/2 to "see" the Above Board's memory, the Above
Board has to be initialized by a small program.
This program resides in a part of the hard disk's boot track (track 0) reserved
for this purpose.
This chapter is to help you install the Above Board; since the Above Board
doesn't follow the standard procedure described in "Configuration Options" on
page 7, we are providing four separate procedures:
1. Install the MCMaster with the Above Board already installed.
2. Install the MCMaster and Above Board together.
3. Install the Above Board with the MCMaster already installed.
4. Rerun SOFTSET (Intel's program for setting up the Above
Board) after the MCMaster is installed.
Before you begin, we recommend reading the "Overview" on the next page.
Later versions of the Intel Above Board use an Installable Device
Driver in the CONFIG.SYS file rather than the method described here.
Check your Intel documentation. If your Above Board uses the device
driver, ignore this chapter and follow the directions under "Operating
Mode".
If you're still not sure which Above Board you have, start the
procedure described here. If the Above Board doesn't use a track 0
initializer, our SETINIT program will report that it can't find an
initializer for the Intel Above Board.
