The default driver node will supposedly install on all NT boxen. The .NT.5.1 will only install on XP. Useful for when there are differences to sys files, services, registry settings, etc.

But sometimes we have an instance like the 3ware drivers which for some reason is split up and doesn't need to be.

[AMCC]
%DEVICE_DESCRIPTION_9K%  = Install, PCI\VEN_13C1&DEV_1002&SUBSYS_100213C1
%DEVICE_DESCRIPTION_9X%  = Install, PCI\VEN_13C1&DEV_1003&SUBSYS_100313C1
%DEVICE_DESCRIPTION_9E%  = Install, PCI\VEN_13C1&DEV_1004&SUBSYS_100413C1
%DEVICE_DESCRIPTION_9A%  = Install, PCI\VEN_13C1&DEV_1004&SUBSYS_100513C1

; for Windows XP/2003 systems (actually all x86 NT machines)
[AMCC.NTx86]
%DEVICE_DESCRIPTION_9K%  = Install, PCI\VEN_13C1&DEV_1002&SUBSYS_100213C1
%DEVICE_DESCRIPTION_9X%  = Install, PCI\VEN_13C1&DEV_1003&SUBSYS_100313C1
%DEVICE_DESCRIPTION_9E%  = Install, PCI\VEN_13C1&DEV_1004&SUBSYS_100413C1
%DEVICE_DESCRIPTION_9A%  = Install, PCI\VEN_13C1&DEV_1004&SUBSYS_100513C1

; for Windows x64 systems
[AMCC.NTamd64]
%DEVICE_DESCRIPTION_9K%  = Install, PCI\VEN_13C1&DEV_1002&SUBSYS_100213C1
%DEVICE_DESCRIPTION_9X%  = Install, PCI\VEN_13C1&DEV_1003&SUBSYS_100313C1
%DEVICE_DESCRIPTION_9E%  = Install, PCI\VEN_13C1&DEV_1004&SUBSYS_100413C1

Could be condensed to only the AMCC node.

Thank you Overflow,

I didn't understand the purpose of disableIfOS , now it's clearer.

You are almost more acurate.
If you are going to attempt to add the 2k support you must disable it
or disable one of the other 2k drivers that is enabled.
Or you will crash 2k by exceeding the memory limit

So if you were going to add it for 2k as well you must also disable it like so... (or an alternate one)

[T]
ms_count=2
ms_1_deviceName="TOSHIBA RAID (XP/2K3)"
ms_1_tag="KR10N"
ms_1_sysFile="KR10N.sys"
ms_1_hwids="PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2653&SUBSYS_0F101179,PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C5&SUBSYS_0F101179"
ms_1_isBusExtender=false
ms_1_exc_skipIfOS="w2k"
ms_2_deviceName="TOSHIBA RAID (2K)"
ms_2_tag="KR10N2K"
ms_2_sysFile="KR10N2K.sys"
ms_2_hwids="PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2653&SUBSYS_0F101179,PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C5&SUBSYS_0F101179"
ms_2_isBusExtender=false
ms_2_exc_skipIfOS="wxp,w2k3"
ms_2_exc_disableIfOS="w2k"

but yeah you had the right idea
- it just would have crashed 2k had you actually tried it as you posted it...
since ricktendo did not add the 2k support he would not have had that problem...

I apprecieate the good thinking though... you just lacked a little experience... that now you have gained!

jeff

Just to be crystal clear we have reached the limit of the number of drivers that win2k can support years ago, to add a new driver to win2k now one of the other win2k drivers must first be disabled. or win2k WILL crash.

I probably would have done what rick did since requests for win2k drivers are almost non existent...
although he more correctly might have put ms_1_exc_skipIfOS="w2k" instead of the disableifos...
but it would not have caused a crash in win2k like your version...
but you are correct about the addition of the second section to support 2K is more complete.

Hmm perhaps I'm wrong... But it may be better to add KR10N2K.sys like this:

[T]
ms_count=2
ms_1_deviceName="TOSHIBA RAID (XP/2K3)"
ms_1_tag="KR10N"
ms_1_sysFile="KR10N.sys"
ms_1_hwids="PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2653&SUBSYS_0F101179,PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C5&SUBSYS_0F101179"
ms_1_isBusExtender=false
ms_1_exc_skipIfOS="w2k"
ms_2_deviceName="TOSHIBA RAID (2K)"
ms_2_tag="KR10N2K"
ms_2_sysFile="KR10N2K.sys"
ms_2_hwids="PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2653&SUBSYS_0F101179,PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C5&SUBSYS_0F101179"
ms_2_isBusExtender=false
ms_2_exc_skipIfOS="wxp,w2k3"

Yes it appears on the surface to be done correctly, perfect even! Sorry I did not test it or run the kickarse hwids tool on it. did you use the latest nightly or the latest release for a starter point?

I am gettting ready to take a run at the base code again with some down time on my hands.
if it works for you i would cal that a WIN!!! we will get it added to the latest nightly...

null@example.com (newsposter) — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 00:54:53 +0000

is that driver for the new cell CPU based controllers?

Re: [IMPL] Toshiba RAID Support

null@example.com (ricktendo64) — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 00:37:05 +0000

I took these:

ms_1_hwids="PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2653&SUBSYS_0F101179,PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C5&SUBSYS_0F101179"

from KR10N.INF:

[TOSHIBA]; This section will only be installed by Windows 2000
%KR10NDesc%=KR10N_InstW2k,PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2653&SUBSYS_0F101179
%KR10NDesc%=KR10N_InstW2k,PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C5&SUBSYS_0F101179

[TOSHIBA.NT.5.1]; This section will only be installed by Windows XP
%KR10NDesc%=KR10N_InstXP,PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2653&SUBSYS_0F101179
%KR10NDesc%=KR10N_InstXP,PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C5&SUBSYS_0F101179

Is that wrong?

I am pretty goot at INF files for my UpdatePack and addons but just going by other mass storage dp entries

Re: [IMPL] Toshiba RAID Support

null@example.com (OverFlow) — Thu, 09 Apr 2009 23:07:36 +0000

It appears to be correctly done... good job!

Unfortunately we are still under-manned on the DriverPacks team, sorry about that.

IDK if this was added to a nightlie off the top of my head... Normaly we would compare the HWID's contained in your driver ms_1_hwids="PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2653&SUBSYS_0F101179,PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C5&SUBSYS_0F101179"
to ensure they do not already exist in the INF... i will assume that is done and that the tag name is unique...

Perfect...

Want to take a stab at updating the pack?

Re: [IMPL] Toshiba RAID Support

null@example.com (ricktendo64) — Thu, 09 Apr 2009 22:21:00 +0000

OK since nobody is responding, just tell me then if I am doing this correctly (editing massstorage dp myself)

I added this to the .ini

[T]
ms_count=1
ms_1_deviceName="TOSHIBA RAID"
ms_1_tag="kr10n"
ms_1_sysFile="KR10N.sys"
ms_1_hwids="PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2653&SUBSYS_0F101179,PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C5&SUBSYS_0F101179"
ms_1_isBusExtender=false
ms_1_exc_disableIfOS="w2k"

I created the following folder with these files in it

DP_MassStorage_wnt5_x86-32_901\D\M\T
KR10N.CAT
KR10N.INF
KR10N.sys
KR10N2K.sys
VIRTUAL.INF

So did I do it correctly?

Do I really need to add VIRTUAL.INF?

null@example.com (ricktendo64) — Fri, 03 Apr 2009 15:04:46 +0000

Forgot HWIDs, added them

[IMPL] Toshiba RAID Support

null@example.com (ricktendo64) — Fri, 03 Apr 2009 06:39:41 +0000

Would it be possible to add this to the next masstorage build?
