Using the Fixed Disk Setup Option
The 
Fixed Disk Setup 
option defines the types of hard
disk drives connected to the primary and secondary IDE
interfaces in your system. When you select this option, you see
the Fixed Disk Setup screen.
Note
These options do not configure other IDE devices, such as
CD-ROM drives, connected to the secondary IDE interface.
Fixed Disk Setup screen options
If any of the drives you installed are larger than 528MB, make
sure the 
Large Disk Access mode 
option is set to 
DOS
(the default setting). Set this option to 
Other 
if you are using
UNIX® or an operating system other than MS-DOS@ or Windows.
From this screen, you can configure each of the installed drives
by selecting them at these options:
IDE Adapter 0 Master
IDE Adapter 0 Slave
IDE Adapter 1 Master
IDE Adapter 1 Slave
The IDE Adapter 0 drives are the master and slave drives
connected to your primary IDE interface. The IDE Adapter 1
drives are connected to the secondary IDE interface.
Individual drive options
Your computer comes with a hard disk auto-sensing feature. To
use it, select one of the drives you have installed from the Fixed
Disk Setup screen. On the screen that appears for that drive,
press 
Enter 
to select the 
Autotype Fixed Disk 
option. The
system detects the type of hard disk drive, fills in the drive’s
parameters, and sets the remaining options on the screen.
