                Phantom Drives during Installation
=======================================================================

Please Read Entire Document for Full Explanation of Procedures
--------------------------------------------------------------
DESCRIPTION


After modifying the OS/2 Warp 4 installation diskettes to add support 
for an NCR SCSI controller, drive letters are incorrectly assigned 
during startup on the installation diskettes. This causes the 
installation program to look for a nonexistent or incorrect drive, and 
an error message "the device is not ready." The CD-ROM is assigned an 
incorrect drive letter.


RESOLUTION

Use a text editor, such as TEDIT shipped with OS/2, to edit the 
CONFIG.SYS file on the modified OS/2 Installation Diskette 1; check for 
and remove any duplicate lines. Duplicate BASEDEV=OS2DASD.DMD 
statements cause this error.
