Specifying the location of an EIDE (IDE) CD-ROM

SCO OpenServer Handbook
Chapter 14, Basic hardware configuration

The srom bootstring allows you to specify the location of a CD-ROM on the EDIE (IDE) bus:

srom=wd(<IDE Controller>, <Master/Slave>, <LUN>, <BUS>)

The valid options for any of the above arguments are "1" or "0". For example, to specify a CD-ROM that is on the secondary IDE controller that is set to master, type:

srom=wd(1,0,0,0)

If the CD-ROM is the only device on the IDE interface, it must be set to master.

NOTE: Please note that you cannot specify IDE hard drives in the same manner. If IDE hard drives are present, the installation uses the Primary/Master IDE hard drive as the root drive.
