AST RESEARCH TECHNICAL BULLETIN TB-0244 11/24/86
VIRTUAL DRIVE INSTALLATION OF THE
AST-5251/11 AND AN IBM AT
When installing a virtual drive for use with the AST-5251/11
emulation program, it is not necessary to run "SETUP" and
configure a non-existing drive. If "SETUP" configures a
non-existing drive, an error (162) will be generated on re-
boot of the AT.
The following procedure is recommended for users with the
IBM AT:
1. Run the AST-5251/11 configuration program, CFG5251.EXE,
and set your virtual drive to "A:". See page 5-66 Task
65 of the AST-5251/11 Users Manual, part number
000196-001 E, May 1986.
2. Run the emulation software as always. "Physical" drive
A: will be available to the user at this time. If
either the IWDOWNL procedure from PC-SUPPORT 36 is
executed, or drive A: is selected under PCFSU,
"Physical" drive A: will not be accessible. Upon
exiting these programs "Physical" drive A: will be
available once again.
