SUMMARY
The Adaptec 1540B/1542B BID that shipped with OS/2 version 1.3 for servers does not support I/O addresses of 134/130. Instead, supported addresses are 334/330 and 234/230. If an address of 134/130 is used, the installation disk will be unable to recognize the existence of the controller, and therefore, will not install OS/2 on the machine.



MORE INFORMATION
Because these I/O addresses are not supported, the jumper block labeled J7 on the controller must not have pin 4 jumpered (I/O address of 134) or pins 2 and 4 jumpered (I/O address 130).

The following is the jumper block and a table of possible address selections:        1 oo        2 oo  ] 3 oo ]  I/O Address selection jumpers 4 oo ] 5 oo       6 oo        7 oo        8 oo          J7
