Version number: BETA 2.0
This is a BETA 2.0 release of the APA-460 SlimSCSI driver.

This version eliminates a check for a particular ROM revision in the
APA-460 and now should work with all revisions.

Installation in OS/2 WARP is identical to any other SCSI host adapter,
with one exception.  You must install the PCMCIA services in WARP first,
then edit your CONFIG.SYS to add the T160SCSI.ADD driver at the end of
the CONFIG.SYS.  If you don't already have your system set up to support
your SCSI device (eg: CD-ROM), then install that support via the
Selective Install in WARP before booting your system up.

It isn't currently possible to install WARP from a PCMCIA-attached
CD-ROM drive, since you need to install the PCMCIA drivers before you
can do that, and you can't install the PCMCIA drivers until after you
have WARP installed!  Catch-22.

IBM will need to visit this problem in the future and possibly provide
instructions for manually creating a PCMCIA version of Disk 1 that would
allow this kind of install.  This is a limitation of the WARP
Installation, not a limitation of PCMCIA or the SlimSCSI itself.

Version number: BETA 1.0 (941108)
This is a BETA 1.0 release of APA-460 Host adapter.
		     
This driver version support APA-460 PCMCIA card for Laptops installed
with PCMCIA sockets and T160 Adapter card as well. 

	This release has added /ADDR command line switch. This will
	allow users to choose a port address for 460 card. 
	
	Example: BASEDEV=T160SCSI.ADD /ADDR=360 will assign port address
	360.
	
This driver is based on OS/2 V3.0 (WARP) operating system. 

***** NOTE *****
Currently, only one APA-460 card is supported.
APA-460 card has 4 I/O space ranges defined: 360h-36fh, 350h-35fh,
260h-260h, and 250h-25fh. But, currently ONLY port 360h-36fh is working
with APA-460. The card services is failing to initialize other
ports. Therefore, the driver cannot detect the presence of a 460
card on any other ports besides 360h. 
	      						    
Installation instructions for the APA-460 OS/2 3.0 PCMCIA Driver
				      	       
1) Open the OS/2 System folder, then open the Selective install.

2) Do PCMCIA installation.

3) Edit CONFIG.SYS file and add BASEDEV=T160SCSI.ADD.			    
						 
4) Copy T160SCSI.ADD to \OS2\BOOT directory.
       
5) Do a SHUTDOWN and power off the system.

6) Insert the APA-460 card into the PCMCIA socket and connect to the
SCSI peripherals. 
		 
7) Power up and reboot the system.

***** NOTE *****
In order to install this driver for APA-460 card, the system has 
to have OS/2 V3.0 pre-installed. Currently, IBM does not have the 
support for CDROM installation with any PCMCIA card attached to 
a CDROM. Therefore, it is NOT recommended to do OS/2 CDROM 
installation using PCMCIA card.
